Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way, take the highway, that's best
Get your kicks on Route 66
[Verse 2]
It winds from Chicago to LA
More than two thousand miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66
[Verse 3]
Now you go through St. Louis Joplin, Missouri
And Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty
You'll see Amarillo Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona don't forget Winona
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino
[Verse 4]
Won't you get hip to this timely tip
When you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66
[Verse 5]
Won't you get hip to this timely tip
When you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your horse
Get your horse
Get your kicks on Route 66
