"Mustang Sally" is a cover song by Andy Taylor, released on the album Dangerous by A&M Records in August 1990.

About the song[]

Written by Sir Mack Rice in 1965, this is an R&B/straight-forward blues song which gained greater popularity when it was covered by Wilson Pickett on a single the following year.

According to music historian Tom Shannon, the song started as a joke when Della Reese's band leader wanted a new Ford Mustang.

Andy Taylor's version was recorded at the Trident II Studios in London, during the summer of 1990 for his second solo studio album Dangerous.

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.
