I still remember, it was autumn and the moon was shinin'
Our '60 Cadillac was roarin' thru Nebraska whinin'
Doing 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 spinning wheels were turnin' turnin'
Had my girl beside me brother brother, she was burnin' burnin'
I walked up at this 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 pulled 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 pick-up 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, better
Get out of Denver, better
Get out of Denver
Well, the lights were flashin' and the sirens were a-screamin' screamin'
We had to pinch each other just to see if we was 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 into some fog cover
We couldn't see a thing, but somehow we just kept on goin'
We kept on drivin' all night long and then into the mornin'
Fog, it finally lifted, when we looked to see where we was at
We were starin' at a Colorado State Policeman Trooper cat
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, better
Get out of Denver, better
Get out of Denver
Better go 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, better
Get out of Denver, better go!
