Katmandu
Bob Seger · Ultimate Hits. Rock And Roll Never Forgets [2011]
that's really really where I'm going to
if I ever get out of here that's what I'm going to do
kkkkkk katmandu
I think it's really where I'm going to
if I ever get out of here
I'm going to Katmandu
I got nothing against the West Coast
You know those brothers are such good hosts
I raise my whiskey glass and give them a toast
I'm sure they know it's true
I got nothing against the Southern states
every time I've been there it's been great
but now I'm leaving and I can't be late
and to myself be true
That's why I'm going to Katmandu
up to the mountains where I'm going to
if I ever get out of here
that's what I'm gonna do
oh kkkkkkk katmandu
that's really really where I'm going to
if I ever get out of here
I'm going to Katmandu
I got no quarrel with the Midwest
the folks out there have given me their best
I've lived there all my life I've been their guest
I sure have love it too
I'm tired of looking at the tv news
I'm tired of driving hard and paying dues
I figure baby I've got nothing to lose
I'm tired of being blue
That's why I'm going to Katmandu
up to the mountains where I'm going to
if I ever get out of here
that's what I'm gonna do
oh kkkkkkk katmandu
take me baby cause I'm going with you
if I ever get out of here
I'm going to Katmandu
Katmandu - Bob Seger
Bob Seger's 'Katmandu' stands as a defining track from his 1976 album 'Night Moves,' capturing the raw energy of his rock and roll legacy. The song features Seger's signature gritty vocals and driving rhythm, reflecting his ability to blend personal narrative with anthemic power. Released during a period where Seger was solidifying his status as a cornerstone of American rock, the recording showcases his knack for crafting songs that resonate with themes of travel and resilience. While often associated with his broader discography of hits, 'Katmandu' remains a standout example of his mid-70s work, demonstrating the enduring appeal of his songwriting and performance style that continues to influence rock music today.
