From the recording Shakin' Sally
What’s YOUR bike’s name??
Hello,
Just about every biker names their rides. Some call them “The Old lady” some by many other names. Movies have been about them, stories have been told about them, legends have been born around them.
This brings us to “Shakin Sally”
As a lifelong biker, riding Harley’s all my life, the need to introduce Sally was undeniable. What we bikers experience on the open road is tantamount to ultimate freedom. Freedom of movement, freedom of expression and style.
Many people say that a dog owner’s dogs begin to reflect their owners, and the same goes with biker’s rides. They are as individual as the riders who own them and reflective of their vastly different personalities.
This is how I feel about my “Sally”. I hope you enjoy the ride as much as we do!
Sincerely,
Rick ‘N Friends
Lyrics
SHAKIN SALLY
Verse 1: :18-:32
Born in year 1906
Her legend reaches from city to sticks
She helped our boys through two world wars
Brought thrills and chills to millions more……oh yeah
32-35 That’s my Sally
Chorus 1: 0:36-0:58
Shakin’ Sally, wind blowin’ through my hair
Rollin’ without a care
Windin’ through the mountain roads
Sally reflections shine
Vibrates your steely spine
Higher we dare to climb
Freedom, with no sense of passing time
Verse 2: 1:11-1:24
Through the years she’s been refined
Pan head, Knucklehead redesigned
She’s never one to discriminate
Always able to carry her weight…oh yeah
1:25-1:28 That’s my Sally
Chorus 2: 1:29-1:50
Shakin’ Sally, Shiny chrome and custom paint
No no we aint no saints
Cruzin’ down the boulevard
Sally your roaring pipes
Standing for the stars and stripes
Live to ride and ride to live
Always willing to help and to give
Bridge A: 1:50-2:12
Some tried to give you, give you a bad name
They tried to tarnish your good reputation
They misused you made you the blame
Told stories, exaggerations
Truth won out and restored your fame
Bridge B1: 2:13-2:23
Shakin’ Shakin’ Sally
Shakin’ Shakin’ Sally
Shakin’ Shakin’ Sally
Bridge B2: 2:23-2:35
Shakin’ Shakin’ Sally
Shakin’ Shakin’ Sally
Shakin’ Shakin’ Sally
Verse 3: 2:50-3:02
Bad choices and much corporate greed
Tried to bring you to your knees
Your honor we would all defend
A rising Phoenix to glory in the end
3:03-3:06 That’s my Sally
Chorus 3a: 3:07-3:25
Shakin Sally you’re free to roam nowhere is home
Open road never alone
Route 66 to reminisce
Sally sun on your face
No worries can take your place
Any stress quickly displaced
Your bliss is like a candy kiss
Chorus 3b: 3:26-3:49
Shakin’ Sally there’s simply nothing to compare
Rustling leaves blown in fresh air
A shadow riding by your side
Sally you’re on your own
A big girl now the coupe you’ve flown
I sit proudly on your throne
Never shall we part ever again
