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 Pass 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
