In the film, the song plays when the train of the same name is chugging throughout the U.S. towards the next circus event. It then ends when he stops at the spot where the circus is to be performed while the next song "Roustabouts" plays. A minor version of it is heard when Casey trudges through the rain after the pyramid disaster.
Max Medici (the film's version of the Ringmaster) sings the song in the 2019 live action remake. An instrumental version is incorporated in the opening soundtrack, when Casey Junior is travelling through America.
Lyrics[]
Casey, Jr.'s comin' down the track
Comin' down the track
With a smoky stack
Hear him puffin' comin' 'round the hill
Casey's here to thrill
Every Jack and Jill
Refrain:
Every time his funny little whistle sounds (Toot toot!)
Everybody hurries to the circus grounds
Time for lemonade and cracker jack
Casey, Jr.'s back
Casey, Jr.'s back
