"Nutbush City Limits (Live)" lyrics

You are here because you want the real thing
Let's bring on Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band now
Hey Detroit, yeah
Woo
Oh
Oh

There's a church house, gin house
A little schoolhouse, outhouse
On U.S. 19
Hey, the people keep the city clean
They call it Nutbush
Ah, Nutbush

Ah, Nutbush city
Nutbush city limit

Twenty-five is the speed limit
Motorcycle not allowed in it
Go to town on Saturday
Be in church every Sunday
Oh, up in
Up in

Oh, Nutbush city
Nutbush city limit

No whiskey for sale
Can't find a female
Salt pork and molasses
All you gonna get if you end in jail
In
In

Oh, Nutbush city
Nutbush city limit

Little old town down in Tennessee
Quiet
Ooh hoo, yeah, yeah
As I told everybody last night
I was reading in Rolling Stone where
They said that Detroit audiences
Are the greatest rock and roll audiences in the world
I thought to myself
"Shit, I've known that for ten years!"
You better watch out for the police
If you're driving into Nutbush
Better watch out for the police
If you cruise into Nutbush
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
Unh, better keep an eye
You better keep an eye
Ooh, better, better, better, better, better keep an eye
Said, look out
You better keep an eye
Oh

Thank you
Thank you
Woo!
Thank you very much
A couple of songs from our new LP we'd like to do for you now
This first one's called "Travelin' Man"
