Route 66 Lyrics

Mister . . . you may . . . have travelled near or far,
But you haven't seen the country,
'till you've seen the country by car!

Mister . . . may I . . . recommend a royal route?
It starts in illinois, let me tell you boy!
If you ever plan to motor west,
Travel my way, take the highway, that's the best!
Get your kicks . . . on route 66!

It winds from chicago to l.a.,
More than two thousand miles all the way!
Get your kicks . . . on route 66!

Now, you go through st. louis, joplin, missouri,
And oklahoma city is a mighty purdy!
You'll see amarillo, gallup, new mexico,
Flagstaff, arizona, don't forget winona,
Kingman, barstow, san bernardino!

Won't you get hip to this timely tip,Perry Como - Route 66 - http://motolyrics.com/perry-como/route-66-lyrics.html
When you make that california trip?
Get your kicks . . . on route 66!

Springfield, illinois . . . springfield, missouri too!
Seven states, count 'em, seven,
Spread out in front of you!

< instrumental break >

You'll like the aroma, of tulsa, oklahoma,
Albuquerque and tucumcari, make new mexico extraordinary!
You'll wanna own a piece of arizona,
Needles, essex, amboy, azusa,
No one in sunny cal is a loser . . .

So . . . get hip to this timely tip,
When you make that california trip!
If any joe . . . tells you to go . . . some other way,
Say nix!
Get your kicks . . . on route 66!
