Lyrics
Hotwired a pony, it purred so fine Stalled that motor on the railway line Put the pedal to the metal but the metal weren't mine A coal train rumbled through my mind Ch: Pale moon rose on the end of time And the Basement Tapes were playing in my mind But me, I couldn't see it for lookin' Maybe the blues was the blues before it all went black But Mustang Sally played outta whack I hid my heart in a gunny sack The spoon left the dish and it never came back There's a light in her eyes, There's a blush on the peach There's a rose scales the balcony It's outta reach But me, I couldn;t see it for lookin' I took a pen carved from a gypsy's bones Wrote her name on a skippin' stone Turned out my pockets and knotted my soul Like a string on my finger for when I grow old Pale moon rose on the end of time And the Basement Tapes were playin' in my mind But me, I couldn't see it for lookin'.
