Skate On Spurs,
Skate On
Listen to It as You Read the Lyrics (904 kb). It's easy
to tell that this song was made in the 70s. It's easier to see Gassoff, Schultz and MacNeil taking the ice
to The Stooges "Search and Destroy" than this song, but it's history and deserves to be on the page.
Flashing 'cross the blue line
Crashing toward the goal
Flying like the Rocky Mountain Wind
Battling in the corners
Fighting for control
The Denver Spurs are on the move again.
Crushing straining bodies
Rushing to the net
Checking 'til the goalie stands alone
Sending slap shots whistling
Taking all that they can get
'Til the chords snap as the puck is driven home
CHORUS
SKATE ON SPURS, SKATE ON
SKATE ON SPURS, SKATE ON
Score
One More
And we'll be
Roaring along
SKATE ON SPURS, SKATE ON
BRIDGE
SKATE ON SPURS, SKATE ON
SKATE ON SPURS, SKATE ON
SKATE ON SPURS, SKATE ON
SKATE ON SPURS, SKATE ON
Leaning from the balconies
Screaming from the stands
As the pride of Denver turns the ice to steam
We're stamping on the concrete
We're clapping burning hands
Loving our Colorado hockey team
