Hey if you every plan to fly out west,
travel my way, thats the highway thats the best.
Chorus:
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.
Well it winds from Chicago to LA,
more than two thousand miles all the way.
Chorus.
Well you go through Saint Looey
Joplin, Missouri,
Oklahoma City looks oh so pretty.
You'll see Amarillo,
Gallup, New Mexico,
Flagstaff, Arizona.
Don't forget Winona,
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernadino.
Wont you get hip to this kind of tune:
When you make that Califronia trip.
Chorus. Lets go...
Well you go through Saint Looey
Joplin, Missouri,
Oklahoma City looks oh so pretty.
You'll see Amarillo,
and Gallup, New Mexico,
Flagstaff, Arizona.
Don't forget Winona,
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernadino.
Wont you get hip to this kind of tune:
When you make that Caladelic trip.
Chorus. x3.
