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
