Get your kicks on Route 66
Der Song “Get your kicks on Route Sixty-Six” machte den Sänger und Komponist Troup und die Route 66 weltweit berühmt.
Sontext
If you ever plan to motor west,
travel my way, take the highway that’s the best.
Get your kicks on Route Sixty-Six!
It winds from Chicago to L.A.,
more than two thousand miles all the way.
Get your kicks on Route Sixty-Six!
Now you go thru Saint Looey Joplin, Missouri
and Oklahoma City is mighty pretty.
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:
When you make that California trip.
Get your kicks on Route Sixty-Six!
