Have You Seen Bruce Richard Reynolds |
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 grassed 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 |
