Lyrics Route 66 - Ann Hampton Callaway

(Here is a tip...
It comes from a swingin' song
Heard it from Nat King Cole)
He said,
If you ever plan to motor west,
Travel my way, take the highway that is best.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.
Well, it winds from Chicago to LA
(From Illinois to C.A.),
More than two thousand miles all the way
(Two thousand miles of road).
Get your kicks (your kicks) on route sixty-six...
(From Chi-town, Rag-town, to L.A.)
Now you go through St. Louis (Hey)
Joplin, Missouri,
(And Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty).
You see Amarillo,
Gallup, New Mexico,
Flagstaff, Arizona.
Don't forget Winona,
(Kingman, Barstow, San Bernandino)
Won't you (won't you)
Get hip to this timely tip
(Baduba du baduba du badu way.)

When you make that California trip
(From Chicago to L.A.)
Get your kicks (your kicks) on route sixty-six.
See how it feels (see how it feels)
When you got your wheels
(When you got your wheels)
Movin' down the highway with the top down
...(doo doo doo)
The air blowin' through your hair
.(hair blowin' your hair)
Baby it's groovy, makin' a movie.
And America can be the star...
Right on camera.it's your car...
(We're cruisin sixty six, with the top down,
Your camera is your car.)
(Keep cruisin' nice and slow)
Your car,
(Sing along with the radio)
You're goin' by (so far)
You're goin' down (so deep)
You're goin' wide (oh...)
Maybe with your baby by your side

-Instrumental Break-

(From Chi-town, Rag-town, to L.A.)
Now you go through St. Louis (Hey)
Joplin, Missouri,
(And Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty).
You see Amarillo,
Gallup, New Mexico,
Flagstaff, Arizona.
Don't forget Winona,
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernandino.
Won't you (won't you) get hip to this timely tip
(Baduba du baduba du badu way.)

When you make that California trip
(From Chicago to L.A.)
Get your kicks (your kicks) on route sixty-six.
(On route sixty six)
Get your kicks on Route 66
(Oh woo woo get your kicks...)

On route 66
(Route six six... YEAH)
