A musical cartoon. This one has a long backstory. As for the history of the song — look up "Casey Jones" on Wikipedia (in Utesov's version the name is spelled with a "Z", "KeyZie", from the German). The song's roots, as they say, run deep. :) But I have my own history with this song. The record came to me from my grandparents who left us too soon, along with a prehistoric record player . This unusual-for-the-USSR song was played until the grooves wore out. In short, it's the song of my childhood. And mine alone. Because nobody else knew it. For a long time I kept trying to fit it in somewhere or sing it somehow, but it never worked out. And I realized that sooner or later I had to cover it, or else. . In Utesov's original version I only changed one line about the rails . Because in the original American song it was exactly that way. Restored historical justice, so to speak, removed the proletarian extremism. Anyway, hope it turned out fun. :) Enjoy!
