1952 Vincent Black Lightning - Richard Thompson[00:00:00]
Said Red Molly to James[00:00:24]
That's a fine motorbike[00:00:28]
A girl could feel special[00:00:30]
On any such like[00:00:32]
Said James to Red Molly [00:00:36]
My hat's off to you[00:00:38]
It's a Vincent Black Lightning 1952[00:00:41]
And I've seen you[00:00:46]
At the corners and cafes it seems[00:00:46]
Red hair and black leather [00:00:50]
My favourite colour scheme[00:00:51]
And he pulled her on behind[00:00:54]
And down to Boxhill they did ride[00:00:59]
Said James to Red Molly [00:01:16]
Here's a ring for your right hand[00:01:20]
But I'll tell you in earnest[00:01:23]
I'm a dangerous man[00:01:25]
I've fought with the law[00:01:27]
Since I was seventeen[00:01:29]
I robbed many a man[00:01:32]
To get my Vincent machine[00:01:33]
Now I'm 21 years [00:01:36]
I might make 22[00:01:38]
And I don't mind dying [00:01:40]
But for the love of you[00:01:42]
And if fate should break my stride[00:01:44]
Then I'll give you[00:01:50]
My Vincent to ride[00:01:51]
Come down come down [00:02:48]
Red Molly called Sergeant McRae[00:02:49]
For they've taken young James Adie[00:02:54]
For armed robbery[00:02:56]
Shotgun blast hit his chest [00:02:59]
Left nothing inside[00:03:01]
Oh come down [00:03:03]
Red Molly to his dying bedside[00:03:05]
When she came to the hospital [00:03:08]
There wasn't much left[00:03:10]
He was running out of road [00:03:12]
He was running out of breath[00:03:14]
But he smiled to see her cry[00:03:17]
And said I'll give you[00:03:22]
My Vincent to ride[00:03:23]
Says James in my opinion [00:03:36]
There's nothing in this world[00:03:39]
Beats a 52 Vincent[00:03:41]
And a red headed girl[00:03:43]
Now Nortons and Indians[00:03:46]
And Greeveses won't do[00:03:48]
They don't have a soul[00:03:51]
Like a Vincent 52[00:03:53]
He reached for her hand[00:03:55]
And he slipped her the keys[00:03:57]
He said I've got[00:03:59]
No further use for these[00:04:00]
I see angels on Ariels[00:04:03]
In leather and chrome[00:04:05]
Swooping down from heaven[00:04:06]
To carry me home[00:04:08]
And he gave her[00:04:16]
One last kiss and died[00:04:17]
And he gave her[00:04:21]
His Vincent to ride[00:04:22]
