Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, if you ever plan to motor West
Travel my way, take the highway, that's the best
Get your kicks on Route 66
[Verse 2]
Well, it winds from Chicago to L.A.
More than two thousand miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66
[PreChorus]
Well, it goes to St. Louis, down to Missouri
Oklahoma City looks oh, so pretty
You'll see Amarillo, Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona, don't forget Winona
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino
[Chorus]
If you get hip to this kind of tip
And go take that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66
[PreChorus]
Well, it goes to St. Louis, down to Missouri
Oklahoma City looks oh, so pretty
You'll see Amarillo, Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona, don't forget Winona
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino
[Chorus]
If you get hip to this kind of tip
And go take that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66
[Outro]
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your kicks on Route 66
