^AOh says Red Molly to James That’s a fine motor^Dbike ^DA girl could feel special on any such l^Aike ^ASays James to Red Molly My hats off to y^Dou ^DIt’s a Vincent Black Lightning 19^A52 ^AAnd Ive s^Eeen you at the corners and c^Dafes it s^Aeems ^ERed hair and black leather my f^Davorite colour s^Acheme ^AAnd he p^Bmulled her on beh^Dind and down to Boxhill they did ^Aride

^AOh says James to Red Molly Heres a ring for your right ^Dhand ^DBut I’ll tell you in earnest I'm a dangerous ^Aman ^AFor I’ve fought with the law since I was s^Deventeen ^DI robbed many a man to get my Vincent m^Aachine ^ANow I’m ^E21 years I ^Dmight make ^A22 ^EAnd I don’t mind dying, but f^Dor the love of y^Aou ^AAnd if f^Bmate should break my ^Dstride Then I’ll give you my Vincent to ^Aride
