TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "Mustang Sally" by The Commitments

Yeah, yeah... I know Wilson Pickett is the OG for this song,

but I dig this version a TON!

Mustang Sally

Mustang Sally

Guess you better slow that Mustang down

Mustang Sally, now baby

Guess you better slow that Mustang down

You've been running all over town

Ooh, I guess you gotta put your flat feet on the ground

(Spoken: "Sing it to me one more time girls.")

-Chorus-

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride]

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride]

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride]

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride]

Tell you, one of these early mornings

I'm gonna be wiping those weepin' eyes, yeah

I brought you a brand new Mustang [ride]

It was a nineteen sixty five

Now you comin' around to signify a woman

Girl, you won't, you won't let me ride

Mustang Sally, now baby [Sally, now baby]

Guess you better slow that Mustang down [down], alright

You've been running all over town

Oh, I guess you gotta put your flat feet on the ground

(Spoken: "Oh yeah, baby, you gotta put your flat feet")

-Chorus-

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride]

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride]

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride], ah yeah

All you wanna do is ride around Sally [Ride, Sally, ride]

One of these early mornings

I'm gonna be wiping those weepin' eyes, yeah

(Spoken: "Oh yeah, baby, come on, boys")

Those weepin' eyes, oh yeah, those weepin' eyes

Those weepin' eyes, yeah, yeah, yeah, those weepin' eyes

Those weepin' eyes

Oh, those weepin' eyes

yeah, yeah, yeah, hey yeah.
