Red Mustang

Me and the comic figure of death went dancing
All the way down that river
You could see us prancing
Me and my friends were all on fire
From the tang

She said I love you but there’s someone above you
The driver of a red Mustang
Oh Sugar
The driver of a red Mustang
Oh Sugar
Evil Car

I lost my comrades in the evening fog
I got so tired that I slept in a hollow log
There’s an evil forming as I’m falling asleep
And I’m lost in the wilderness with the midnight creeps

A woman in a shawl led me through the rain
I stumbled on a grave that bore my Christian name
There’s an evil forming, all over the town
And I’m with the midnight creeps, on some burial ground

I’m up to pray, as the witches sang
Saw the headlights on the head of a red Mustang
Like an evil pouring, all over the street
And I’m on the edge of town, with the midnight creeps

Me and the comic figure of death went dancing
We could hear the sleigh bells ring
And the rooftops glistening
The prettiest bells that ever rang
She said it’s snowing so I gotta get going
I’m leaving in a red Mustang
Oh darling
I’m leaving in a red Mustang
Oh darling
I’m leaving in a red Mustang
