We had a black mustang a sixty-four and a half
3 speed stick shift leather seats driven by my dad Chrome and steel reflecting in the hot summer sun You were built to drive and oh how you can run
Watching from the backseat my father shifting gears Driving fast him behind the wheel I had no fear
For a short time my sisters and brother drove it too In ‘75 he sold that ride and the run was through
Go Pony Go Set yourself free
Go Pony Go Come ride along with me Go Pony Go Right past the trees Leave it all behind
You were made to run Pony
Come ride with me
Your brothers and sisters they have come and gone
None of them caught my eye until that Blue Colt came along Dressed up just like you with chrome and steel
Thought about you every time I climbed behind that wheel
Taught my kids to drive that Mustang each one got their chance Burning the clutch grinding gears till they found the right stance It ended one night 07’s‘s run was through
That chapter was closed and there was nothing we could do
