Alabama 3 - Have You Seen Bruce Richard Reynolds? lyrics

Have you seen Bruce Richard Reynolds? He's a man we'd like to find They say The Great Train Robbery, he was the mastermind And his firm they pulled the greatest turn the world has ever known Two million quid was stolen, the firm split for parts unknown Have you seen Bruce Richard Reynolds? He's a man we must detain He's wanted for the robbery of the Glasgow-Euston train Age 32, height six foot one, eyes grey, his hair is brown Apprehend Bruce Richard Reynolds, he is wanted by The Crown Well Reynolds and some people got together as a firm While doin' bird in Wormwood Scrubs he heard about a turn To rob a train, but it needed brains, so Reynolds scratched his head "When I done my bird, I'll rob that train", that's what he said When Reynolds left his prison cell he started on his scheme He contacted old Gordon G. and Tommy Wisbey's team They came to an arrangement and a partnership was made By summer '63 the scene was set for Reynold's raid, yeah On the night of August the 8th y'know the raid went like a dream A hundred and twenty mail-bags full of money was stolen by the team But someone left his fingerprints and the guys were soon on charge But they'd only caught the muscle 'cause the brains were still at large, yeah On the grapevine came the news that Mister Reynolds made a vow "Well no-one gra**ed on me,", he said, "I can't desert them now" "And the iron bars and prison walls, they do not bother me" "I've robbed the mail, so I'll rob the jails and set my whole firm free" By August '64 old Charlie Wilson left his cell By late in '65 Ron Biggs said "Adiós" as well Have you seen Bruce Richard Reynolds? He's a mastermind you know Just walking through the walls of jails and lettin' his firm go Wild Bill Anderson The Reno brothers, first train robbery 1866 at Seymour, Indiana, $10,000 stolen The James boys, Frank and Jessie The Dalton Brothers The Younger Brothers Quail Hunter Jack Kennedy Black Jack Ketchum Old Bill Miner, still robbing trains at the age of 92 Bitter-sweet George Newcomb The Newton Brothers and Buckey O'Neill Big Nose George Parrot Texas Jack Reed Kid Slaughter Henry Starr Butch Ca**idy and the Sundance Kid Red Buck Weightmoor Little Dick West Piano Charley Bullard Sam Ba** Black Jack Gang Tulsa Jack Blake Pennsylvania Butch Clark Dynamite Dick Clifton Flat-nose George Curry Bill Doolin Gang Peg-Leg Bob Eldridge Brooklyn Blacky Gordon Long John Halford The High Fives Gang The Hole In The Wall Gang The Wild Bunch
