The Ballad Of Casey Mcphee - Sesame Street Band
Listen while I tell you a story old and true
Casey Macphee the engineer got his train through
He faced the toughest duty an engineer could do
But he was brave and not afraid
And he got his train through
Through through through he got the train through
Through through through
Me got the train through
Train was carrying moo cows and cake and ice cream too
There were six cars full of cookies and a tank of chocolate too
The stuff was for the party
That the kids would have all year
And getting that train through the narrow pass
Was the job of the engineer
Through through through he got the train through
Through through through
He get the train through
Oh this train full of stuff me love to eat
And children all waiting for
And on other side of narrow dangerous pass
And me west paterble for all train
Me must get train through
But an avalanche had closed the track and covered it with snow
The snow was deep the track was blocked there
Was no place he could go
Casey knew the train was filled with things he loved to eat
But Casey knew his duty and would not admit defeat
Through through through he got the train through
Through through through he got the train through
Oh this very hat choice
Track covered with snow
If me stay here and not try to go through pass
Me stuck here all alone
Wth six cars of cookies and ice cream
All alone with nobody watching
Me getting hungry
Me getting VERY hungry
Oooooooh maybe it's not too bad if me eat some cookies
Wait What me doing
It be very bad if me eat cookies
Me must get train through
Yes
Casey was a hero
And his duty he could see
Without the cookies and the milk no party could there be
The kids would be unhappy
So Casey raised his head
Me forget about the cookies
And eat the snow instead
Through through through he got the train through
He ate up all the avalanche
It mighty tasty too
Through through through he got the train through
Casey that brave engineer got the train through
