Lyrics

Mustang Man

I never wanted him for a husband;
I knew I could never hold him if I did
But when he touched me there was lightnin'
I'da crawled from Memphis to Miami for just one kiss.

OH HE WAS A CHARMER,
HE WAS A HARD CASE,
RUNNIN' WILD THE WAY A MUSTANG CAN.
HE WAS SO HANDSOME
IT HURT TO WATCH HIM
BUT HOW I LOVED TO WATCH MY MUSTANG MAN.

Used to love that smilin' crow-black moustache
and those eyes that promised me a brand new world.
Life was new and I was ready
Learning what it meant to be a grown up girl.

Repeat Chorus

(Instrumental break)

And then one morning I heard his Harley;
Didn't even bother to say goodbye.
I won't tell you when that happened
but nothing's ever stopped me going back in time.

Repeat Chorus

Tag: Yes, how I loved to love my mustang man
