La balada de Dicky Deeming [English translation]

This is the legend

Of brave Dicky Deeming 1

Who was the most cool-headed and quiet outlaw ever...

At two-hundred miles per hour,

He would tear up even air itself...

He'd tear up even the air itself

At two-hundred miles per hour

With his Bonneville motorbike.

Under Heaven, everything had a price

And now, you must pay:

Dicky Deeming, you chose the difficult path!

People followed him,

Both young and old.

If they didn't admire him,

They wanted his head.

They said that he lived outside the law,

But he went his merry way:

Always, on the wild frontier

They said he was the king...

And on this earth, if you're not strong,

It's better for you to have good luck:

Dicky Deeming, you chose the difficult path!

One clear afternoon

They went to get him:

Too much marijuana...

Everybody has a cross to bear!

Dicky went faster: better dead than in prison!

And a black moon,

From the road,

Rose up to the sky...

And in the gates of death,

He hits the gas and isn't afraid:

Dicky Deeming, you chose the difficult path...

1. Dicky Deeming is the main character in Alan Hunter's classic 1961 novel 'Gently Go Man'.
