Mark Seymour The Red Lady's Gone Lyrics

Well last time I blew a gasket
One night in 93
Left the red lady parked outside
For all the world to see
She was glowing like a red hot rainbow
Should of left the kill switch on
Inside the quarter panel
Now the red lady's gone
You know I used to take her out on the weekend
She used to purr like a beast
Twin barrel bendix Stromberg opened up
You know the note was a feast
You know I used to believe in that power
Now I really miss that song
Howling down the highway
The red lady's gone
Some low life from over the Yarra came around
He was kicking tyres that day Said I was asking too much
Spat on the ground, came back and drove her away
Oh two hard top tacho on the dash
Oil in the drive way grease in the trash
Everything's wrong now the red lady's gone
Some junky from over the river came around
He was kicking tyres that day
Said I was asking too much
Spat on the ground, came back and drove her away
Oh two door hard top 253
A travesty of justice woe is me
Everything's wrong
Now the red lady's gone
How I really miss that song
Now the red lady's gone
Howling down the highway
The red lady's gone
