1952 Vincent Black Lightning By: Reckless Kelly Written By: Richard Thompson Capo on the 3rd fret G C Said Red Molly to James that's a fine motorbike, C G A girl could feel special on any such like G C Said James to Red Molly, well my hat's off to you C G It's a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952 G D C G And I've seen you at the corners and cafes it seems D C G Red hair and black leather, my favourite colour scheme G Am Am/B C And he pulled her on behind C G And down to Boxhill they did ride
G C
Said James to Red Molly, here's a ring for your right hand
C G
But I'll tell you in earnest I'm a dangerous man
G C
I've fought with the law since I was seventeen
C G
I robbed many a man to get my Vincent machine
G D C G
Now I'm 21 years, I might not make 22
D C G
And I don't mind dying, but for the love of you
G Am Am/B C
And If fate should break my stride
C G
I'll give you my Vincent to ride
G C
Come down, come down, Red Molly, called Sergeant MacRae
C G
For they've taken young James for armed robbery
G C
Shotgun blast hit his chest, left nothing inside
C G
Come down, Red Molly to his dying bedside
G D C G
When she came to the hospital, there wasn't much left
D C G
He was running out of road, he was running out of breath
G Am Am/B C
But he smiled to see her cry
C G
Said I'll give you my Vincent to ride
G C
Said young James. in my opinion, there's nothing in this world
C G
Beats a 52 Vincent and a red headed girl
G C
Now Nortons and Indians and Greeves won't do
C G
They don't have a soul like a Vincent 52
G D C G
He reached for her hand and he gave her the keys
D C G
He said I don't have any further use for these
D C G
I see angels and ariels in leather and chrome
D C G
Swooping down from heaven to carry me home
G Am Am/B C
He gave her one last kiss and died
C G
And he gave her his Vincent to ride Last updated:
