Rory Gallagher - Shin Kicker Lyrics
Well, it's a shin-kicking morning,
Gotta kickstart today,
Wind up my machine and I'll be on my way.
Owwww...
Woke me up at the dawn,
I didn't have a choice, I had to carry on.
Well, my engine's overheating
And I'm running out of gas,
I only got two speeds and it's slow and fast.
Yeah..
Well, I got to find a town that's got some action,
Got to find a place that's open late, right away
Well, I got to find a town that's got more action,
Got to find a place stays open late, right away
Yeahhh...
C. C. Mama,
Motorcycle queen,
I'm gonna catch up with you with my lightning wheels.
Yeah...
It's cold, black coffee,
Eggs and grease,
Stop in at the truckstop, I don't want to sleep.
Well, it's a shin-kick morning,
I'm gonna turn up the heat,
I'm racing all the truckers and I got them beat,
You know I'm racing all the truckers and I've got them beat,
Racing all the truckers and I've got them beat.
Wind up my machine and I'll be on my way,
Wind up my machine and I'll be on my way,
Yeah......

This song rocks!!! You feel it in your veins!! Love it!!!❤️❤️❤️
They broke the mould after they made Rory Gallagher, just a brilliant musician , and when you'd seen him live you just knew you were witnessing something special , Gerry Mcavoy and Ted McKenna also deserve a mention
Too damned straight. As great as Rory was, he was able to be so good because Ted & Gerry held the rhythm for him and they were tighter than a duck's backside.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RORY XXX MARGO ☘💖💖💖
With a tear in my eye i read that Ted all so passed R I P RORY TED MARGO
There you have it in 5 minutes, a supreme exhilarating guitar masterclass from the genius that plays from the heart and nails everything he plays.
Pero que bueno que era....
This a great version of this song Rory R.I.P. To the 28 who dislike this song for some fucked up reason show me why please. It takes all kinds. You must be a Deaf Mute all 28 of U. Even one of you step up to the plate. Nothing against Deaf Mutes just these 28. :)))
He was so friggin exceptional! Awesomeness!
Ted McKenna, drummer , died.
Man, I couldn't find this for a while on here. Thanks a lot. Zee best.
Rory Gallagher drummer, Ted McKenna is dead.
Go raibh maith agat!
Gentleman on street ...ANiMAlL on stage
I hear a hint of Joe Satriani in that guitar playing but Joe Satriani was not around in 1978
Incredible!
Wouldnt like to be following that.😁
se le ve feliz tocando y ahora, con el paso del tiempo ,me lo hace sentir a mi. GRACIAS, RORY GALLAGHER.
One of the really great Rory songs - ho plys like nobody else.
Have i told that Bonamassa went to RG Home and asked the people there if he can play one time on his guitar
He is a great fan
Not copy- i try to bring it to
The channel of dons tunes - he has RG - i never thought that but rory is a rocker who loves the blues too - dont know how to get this brillant guitarplayer to this channel - i think it doesnt work
Pure Rock'n'Roll.
Of all the bull shit I've put my self through in the last 64 years the constant has always been Rory Gallagher and Gary Moore .
Deborah King same its laurel and hardy , peter Sellers, rory Gallagher and Ritchie blackmore dio era
Magic all said Margo R,I,P, RORY
You tube do that on dons tunes — that is the other music RG did — he made such great rock in montreux jazz festival
@ 1:09 i wish i could have an orgasm that good! My gawd that man could put on a show!
Wauw, RORY what a Legend, R,I,P,
His Wife : The Fender .
The REAL - King for me on the Fender.
que d'un bonheur dommage qu'il soie un mort si jeune
Fabulous!
Hendrix,clapton etc. Top That.
Nobody that ever lived on Gods green earth could shin kick like Rory could, he was the world champion shin kicker. he would shin kick even in flight and playing a mean guitar solo.
WOW, Rory was on fire...!!! Great Respekt to Rory Gallagher!
This is Rock`n`Roll, OMG, great, great Rory! - SUPER!
R.I.P.
THIS is Rock'n'Roll!
One of the few guitarists that genuinely makes the hairs stand on end. Genius.
You got that right!!
ganz stark
how can 27 people not love this?
Outstanding Bass Player
I will shout out my highest praises for our man Rory Gallagher every day of my life for the next 287 year whilst i am still on this earth, but it is very unfair that we do not also heap great praise on all the boys in Rory's band they were all very brilliant every single one of them with very special praise for Rory's side kck and Rorys another guiradian angel when on stage, Jerry the main on bass
Force of nature! I loved him.
When Mick Taylor left the Rolling Stones Rory was auditioned but Keef knew he'd met his match and nixed the deal. So good old toe-the-line Ron Wood got hte gig.
Rory didn't like the Stones ill discipline and drug taking. He spent a week with them before he decided he didn't want the job. The Stones wouldn't have been able to keep up with him.
A humam hurricain our Rory sleep easy Margo,
Amazing sound! What a rhythm section...
Sacré Rory ! Ça envoyait un max ! :-)
Utter, utter, rip roaring brilliance !!!! .....edit.....now on my fiftieth viewing ! Awesome !
Rory the legende
Wauw,all said,margo
Julie Gordon from Hull. You mentioned to me about this guy decades ago and you were so right. M x.
Mr. Rory, deine Musik ist unseres Erbe. Danke!
Credit to Jerry McAvoy and Wilbur Campbell (?) - Rory certainly knew how to pick his rhythm section!!
Ted McKenna on drums
god bless you rory you left such a big impact
God it is inhuman what he can achieve with that guitar
IF THAT DON'T LIGHT YOUR FIRE YOUR WOOD'S WET!!! ;D
Hermoso <3
IN PEACE NOW RORY IS REST AFTER CLIMPED TO THE EVEREST
Rory rocks!
I Say C. C. Mama,
Motorcycle queen !!!!!!!!
De dont play like this no more.....cos de cant ....
He's not underrated only. His stunts are also underrated, 3:02
"Homage to Hendrix- no fuck it, Chuck Berry instead."
After he passed away Rory's brother said he looked at his guitar and thought your poor orphan, no one will play you like he did.
Rory = blues rock!!!
Phenomenal! WOW WOW WOW this is ELECTRIC! I've watched this so many times. If there's anyone like Rory I'd love to know
Cocaine. Or just "Irish clover" if you have access to that. I do. Its great but made my hair fall out.
Also legend. Love love love. Respect. Hope to see you again soon Rory!
I confess that when I was younger in our school my head Master was Rory Gallager he was my Teacher and Educator in life. Rory was Gods guitarist, singer/songwriter and messenger of quality music on our earth. Back in our days, in old London town when we were young our parents did not have much money but they would send us to college gigs to see Rory Gallagher and his boys and get the education to last us a life time from this MASTER, been in his classroom was the very best thing that could happen, we came away knowing things which we have used all through our lives. When you have some spare time click on to YouTube and watch this human hurricane in action, The Master Musician Rory Gallagher and his boys going to town at full speed, shin kick going crazy suffering from the bullfrog blues and shadow playing at full pelt. What other person would walk on hot coals then at the end of a show go up to the front of the stage to thank his audience a million, he would say thanks a million to everyone. Rory Gallagher that's who
Miss You Rory ! This world ain't never gonna be the same without You !!!
There's summat' wrong wi' me, keep watchin' it, or is there?
Paulphaze no
how ,bout a movie of rory,s story...............irish genius...i,d name it
nd every one in on his side from the fist track amazing
Brilliant.
I like how he plays and smile.
I could tell you many stories about going to Rory Gallagher gigs and meeting the great man and having drinks but it would take me all night. There was no other like our man Rory, God gave him rare gifts that he shared with everyone who was luck to see him and his ban in action.
When you have some spare time click on to YouTube and watch this human hurricane in action, The Master Musician Rory Gallagher and his boys going to town at full speed. There never was/is and never will be anyone like the great Rory. I was told he plays most nights with Phil Lynott, Garry Moore , Tom Pretty, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and John Bonham down in the Kingdom Hall. The place is allway packed to the rafters with Jesus up on the balcony dancing with delight, Jesus claims to have the best band in the universe
@Aparecida Mendes Take it with a pinch of salt. Might be lying. Sadly some Rory fans like myself have been taken in by fakes. One woman in California claimed to have had a 5 year "romance" with Rory. And that he wrote Moonchild for her. Her claims got more bizzare and she contradicted herself. Someone met Donal and he said he'd never heard of the woman.

I understand what you mean; since I've never met Rory and neither saw a gig, I tend to believe very easily in some posts and act like a fool. . .
shinkicker 123
I've already had read of that "I've dated Rory Gallagher for five years" tale, but her claim of "Moonchild" sounds even more hard to believe in. . .
It's very easy to understand why Rory inspired those girls wishes of meeting hím, having a relantionship, becoming his "muse" or something like that, but such stories should be kept to themselves😞😞😞
Anybody can create such fantasy and claim it's true.
@Aparecida Mendes Please don't be too hard on yourself. We can all be taken in. But these days when people make these claims I get a little cynical. Thanks for responding & have a lovely week. Rory on!
shinkicker 123
Yeah, Rory on forever!
And a lovely week for you too😉
Rory Gallagher and his boys going crazy and talking to themselves. What killer rocking tune and will sound just as good and fresh if played in 200 years time, I was at this gig, the memories are still completely fresh in my mind as it happened yesterday. The woodworks sneaked out of the timber on the floor and left the stage, they just could not take the volume and vibrations. Forget about time, Rory makes this totally timeless
