TAKEN FROM WIKIPEDIA
"Casey Jones" is a song by the American rock band the Grateful Dead. The music was written by Jerry Garcia, and the lyrics are by Robert Hunter. Hunter stated in a 2015 interview with Rolling Stone that "Casey Jones" didn't start out as a song, it just suddenly popped into my mind: "driving that train, high on cocaine, Casey Jones, you better watch your speed." I just wrote that down and I went on to whatever else I was doing, and some time later I came across it and thought, "That's the germ of a pretty good song."[1] The song first appeared on the Dead's 1970 album Workingman's Dead. Subsequently it was included on a number of their live albums.[2]
The Grateful Dead played "Casey Jones" in concert on a regular basis from June 1969 through October 1974. After that, they continued playing it live, but less often. In total they performed the song in concert more than 300 times.[3]
"Casey Jones" is about a railroad engineer who is on the verge of a train wreck due to his train going too fast, a sleeping switch man, and another train being on the same track and headed for him. Jones is described as being "high on cocaine" (the song even makes a double entendre of advising Jones to "watch his speed"). It was inspired by the story of an actual engineer named Casey Jones. The engineer's exploits were also sung of in an earlier folk song called "The Ballad of Casey Jones", which the Grateful Dead played live several times. Casey Jones is also the subject of the song "Freight Train Boogie", by The Delmore Brothers.

Max Kosto I love this song, happy to hear that you do too!
Could you do an alternative song (falling in reverse, sleeping wit sirens, PVRIS, etc.) ?
You make me really really want to buy a ukelele and attempt to learn but I'm scared it'll be hard and I'll give up an it would just go to waste :(
Maritza Santoyo My friend, it won't be easy, but it isn't difficult. It is a lot of fun, you will have so much fun that you can't put it down and it you will be playing your favorite songs in no time. In addition, we are here for you to bring you two songs a week and answer any doubts or questions that you have and to keep you motivated!
gah okay I'm gonna sleep on it a couple of days and if I'm still considering it as much as I am right now, then I will definitely pick one up and be back here soon! Thanks for the advice I really appreciate it! xx
A friend for life! You won't regret it!
Maritza Santoyo as a brand new uke player I want to say Go For It! I'm only on my second month but still loving it completely. One of the best things about ukulele is that you can get a really cheap one and still have it sound pretty good. Buy a cheap one, it isn't that big a risk. There are some perfectly fine starter ukulele on ebay for $25-$50. Not too many instruments you can try to learn for that price! Oh, and don't be surprised that your fingers hurt at first. No one talks about that. It goes away! :)
