![]() ![]() They're afraid of people like that because if everybody would think for themselves then they couldn't oppress anybody longer. ![]() The government teaches you to hate hippies, and they do this because they know that hippies are really just non-conforming free thinkers. See the hate and anger it has caused in you? You are attacking a group of people (on a message board of all places) who have done nothing to you. General CommentHey Sierp, why don't you try thinking for yourself rather than regurgitating all the bullshit your parents and teachers have told you your whole life because even though they had good intent, what they were teaching you was really just what the government uses to brainwash the masses. Regardless of the interpretation, its still a catchy tune! I should stay above the fray but I don't think these activities were unique to Hippies. Perhaps the trouble with you and me is that despite our two good eyes, we don't see the lack of love/meaning embodied in these drug crazed band orgies popular on the road of the era. The fireman screams and the "engine" just gleams. The driving fireman is "coming" around the bend (you know its the end). The trouble ahead, trouble behind may refer to simultaneous front and rear encounters, or it may just reinforce the "train" of band members. I believe this is why, High on cocaine, Casey Jones is "ready" and "speeding". Recall the lyric, Sweet sweet connie was doing her act, she had the whole band and thats a natural fact.Ĭocaine as a drug has been widely associated as a precursor to a heightened sexual appetite. in the biblical way) sexual groupie, Connie Hamzy. Think about Grand Funks reference to the well known (yes. Musicians (esp, deadheads) are surrounded by groupies on the road. Please, don"t miss the reference to the "lady in red"Ī train is a sexual reference to serial sexual encounters with a single, usually willing, partner. I believe it is about much more than just drugs/cocaine. The Dead were not folk musicians (as in Pete Seegers song, Casey Jones) or known to be historians in their time. Lady in red - the caboose of the other train he smashed to pieces High on cocaine - not true but it can refer to going fast like a cannonballĬasey jones you better watch your speed - he dude love to push the trains to their limit & he was the best there was He was never on cocaine during his last run - those lines were just added by the Dead.ĭriving that train - refers to casey jones the famous conductor in 1900 Unfortunately the other train (train hundred and two) didnt get off the main track so Casey's train whammed into it. The NorthBound train must go into an adjacent track while the other train passes. Trains travel both ways on the tracks and the train headin South has precedence over the train heading North. Unbeknown to him and his crew, another train heading towards him was having problems. He was close to schedule at his 2nd to last stop and departed for the final leg. So Casey, being the best there is, ran the route going at times over 100MPH and averaging close to 65MPH over a very dangerous curvey run. As we all know, being late is not good in railroad life. ![]() Casey took the route but now was nearly 1hr 45 minutes behind. Way back in 1900, a fellow engineer called out sick. He ran the CannonBall Route between Chicagp and Memphis. Note: Petchoas aren't intended for human or animal consumption.Song MeaningCasey Jones was the one of the worlds most famous train engineers. You typically don't need to worry about pinching or pruning petchoas to keep them pretty, through you can if you'd like to encourage more compact growth. Slow-release fertilizers deliver a little bit of nutrients to the soil each time you water and you only need to apply them once a season. The soil should never stay wet or soggy, otherwise the roots could rot.įertilize petchoas regularly during the growing season or make it easy on yourself and use a slow-release fertilizer at planting time. Water them regularly to keep them from wilting - but take care not to overwater. In containers, choose a potting mix designed for use in pots. Like most flowering annuals (including petunias and calibrachoas, to which they're related), petchoas prefer moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter if you grow them in gardens. They can tolerate some partial shade, but they won't bloom as well and are more likely to get lanky, unattractive stems without enough sun. Grow petchoas in full sun (at least six to eight hours of direct light a day). ![]()
