1952 Vincent Black Lightning Red Molly

[Verse 1]
Said Red Molly to James, "That's a fine motorbike
A girl could feel special on any such like"
Said 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 cafés it seems
Red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme"
And he pulled her on behind
And down to Box Hill they did ride

[Verse 2]
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
I've fought with the law since I was seventeen
And I robbed many a man to get my Vincent machine
Now I'm twenty-onе years, I might make twenty-two
And I don't mind dying, but for thе love of you
And if fate should break my stride
Then I'll give you my Vincent to ride"

[Dobro Solo]

[Verse 3]
"Come down, come down, Red Molly," called Sergeant McRae
"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"
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
Said, "I'll give you my Vincent to ride"
