Get out of Denver - Bob Seger

I still remember it was autumn and the moon was shinin'

My '60 Cadillac was rollin' through Nebraska whinin'

Doin' a hundred twenty, man the fields was bendin' over

Headin' out for the mountains knowin' we was travelin' further

All our fires were blazin'

And the spinnin' wheels were turnin' turnin'

Had my girl beside me brother brother she was burnin' burnin'

Up walked a Baptist preachin' southern funky school teacher

She had a line on something heavy but we couldn’t reach her

We told her that we needed something that would get us goin'

She put out all she had and laid it on the counter showin'

All I had to do was lay my money down and pick it up

The cops came bustin' in

And then we lit out in a pickup truck and go

Get out of Denver better go go

Get out of Denver better go

Get out of Denver better go go

Get out of Denver cause you look just like a commie

And you might just be a member baby

Get out of Denver baby

Get out of Denver

Well the red lights were flashin'

And the sirens were a screamin' screamin'

We had to pinch each other just to see if we were dreamin'

Made it to Loveland Pass in under less than half an hour

Lord it started drizzlin' and it turned into a thunder shower

The rain was drivin' but the Caddy kept on burnin' rubber

We kept on drivin' till we ran through some fog for cover

We couldn’t see a thing, somehow we just kept on goin'

We kept on drivin' all night long and then into the mornin'

Fog had finally lifted when we looked to see where we was at

We’re starrin' at a Colorado state policeman trooper captain

He said …

Get out of Denver better go go

Get out of Denver better go

Get out of Denver better go go

Get out of Denver cause you look just like a commie

And you might just be a member baby

Get out of Denver baby

Get out of Denver
