1952 Vincent Black Lightning
Reckless Kelly

Oh says Red Molly to James That's a fine motorbike.
A girl could feel special on any such like
Says James to Red Molly My hat's off to you
It's a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952.
And I've seen you at the corners and cafes it seems
Red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme
And he pulled her on behind and down to Boxhill they did ride
Oh says James to Red Molly Here's a ring for your right hand
But I'll tell you in earnest I'm a dangerous man.
For I've fought with the law since I was seventeen,
I robbed many a man to get my Vincent machine.
Now I'm 21 years, I might make 22
And I don't mind dying, but for the love of you.
And if fate should break my stride
Then I'll give you my Vincent to ride

Come down, come down, Red Molly called Sergeant McRae
For they've taken young James Adie for armed robbery.
Shotgun blast hit his chest, left nothing inside.
Oh come down, Red Molly to his dying bedside
When she came to the hospital, there wasn't much left
He was running out of road, he was running out of breath
But he smiled to see her cry
He said I'll give you my Vincent to ride

Says James In my opinion, there's nothing in this world
Beats a 52 Vincent and a red headed girl.
Now Nortons and Indians and Greeves won't do,
Ah, they don't have a soul like a Vincent 52
Oh he reached for her hand and he slipped her the keys
Said I've got no further use for these.
I see angels on Ariels in leather and chrome,
Swooping down from heaven to carry me home
And he gave her one last kiss and died
And he gave her his Vincent to ride.
