Alabama 3 feat. Bruce Reynolds - Have You Seen Bruce Richard Reynolds Lyrics

Lyrics Have You Seen Bruce Richard Reynolds - Alabama 3 feat. Bruce 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 thirty two, 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 Wisbee's team.
They came to an arrangement and a partnership was made.
By summer '63 the scene was set for Reynolds' raid.
On the night of August the 8th, you know the raid went like a dream.
A hundred and twenty mailbags full of money was stolen by the team,
But someone left his fingerprints and the guys were soon on charge
But they only caught the muscle 'cos the brains were still at large, yeah.
On the grapevine came the news that Mr Reynolds made a vow
"Well no one grassed on me'" he said "I can't desert them now.
Them iron bars and prison walls, they do not bother me.
I 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 adios as well.
Have you seen Bruce Richard Reynolds? He's a mastermind you know.
Just walking through the walls of jails and letting his firm go.
