When she was a young girl
Her mama said to her
"Your daddy's leavin' home today
I think he's gone to stay"
They packed up all their bags
And drove up to Anchorage
When they got to Anchorage
She checked in to school
She wore white Chucks on her feet
And she learned the golden rule
The punches came fast and hard
Lying on her back in the schoolyard
Oh don't be denied, don't be denied
Don't be denied, don't be denied
Don't be denied, don't be denied
Well, pretty soon she met a friend
She played guitar
They used to sit on the steps at school
And dream of being stars
They started a band
They played all night
Oh don't be denied, don't be denied
Don't be denied, don't be denied
Don't be denied, don't be denied
The businessmen crowded around
They came to hear the golden sound
There they were on the Sunset Strip
Playing their songs for the highest bid
They played all night
The price was right
Oh don't be denied, don't be denied
Don't be denied, don't be denied
Don't be denied, don't be denied
All that glitters isn't gold
You know you heard that story told
She's a pauper in a naked disguise
A millionaire through a businessman's eyes
Oh friend of mine
Don't be denied
