Original performer: bob seger I still remember it was autumn and the moon was shining Our 60 cadillac was roaring through nebraska whining Doing 120 man the fields was bending over Heading up for the mountains knowing we was traveling further All the fires were blazing and the spinning wheels were turning turning Had my girlfriend beside me, brother, she was burning burning I walked up back to speak to this southern funky school teacher She had a lot of somethig heavy but we couldn't reach her We told her we needed something that would get us going She pulled out all she had and laid it on the counter showing All i had to do was lay my money down and pick it up The cops came busting in and we lit out in a pickup truck Go! get out of denver, baby, go, go Get out of denver, baby, go Get out of denver, baby, go, go Get out of denver cause you look just like a commie And you might just be a member Better get out of denver Better get out of denver Well, all red lights were flashing and the sirens were screaming screaming
We had to pinch each other just to see if we were dreaming Made it to lovely pa** in under less than half an hour Lord, it started drizzling and it turned into a thundershower The rain was driving but the caddy kept on burning rubber We kept on driving till we ran into some fog cover We couldn't see a thing but somehow we just kept on going We kept on driving all night long and then into the morning Fog had finally lifted when we looked to see where we was at We're staring at colorado state policeman trooper cat Go! get out of denver, baby, go, go Get out of denver, baby, go Get out of denver, baby, go, go Get out of denver cause you look just like a commie And you might just be a member Better get out of denver Better get out of denver Go! get out of denver, baby, go, go Get out of denver, baby, go Get out of denver, baby, go, go Get out of denver cause you look just like a commie And you might just be a member Better get out of denver Better get out of denver
