Route 66

Hey kids get out in the car ! Dad, are we going very far ? You don't ask, I won't tell... We're going crazy, oh well. Got to get out on the road... to forget that heavy load ! It winds from Chicago to L.A. Route 66 is where you should play. Our '63 Buick is the car we drive... takes lots of gas to keep it alive. Has luxury and that ain't all... its got a 445 that just will not stall ! Dad said look out the window... see the USA while we go. Gotta see it before its gone, look there's a spaceship on that lawn ! You see everything on the Mother Road... A blue whale and a giant horn toad. In motor courts and wigwams you sleep, buy postcard so memories you keep. Now it's a little out of the way... but more fun than the toll way. See how America used to be, when it was fun to be free ! There's mountains and lots of funny rocks, sand and a canyon like a box. Old drive inns and out door movies... drink a malt and feel so groove. I'd lay up on the window deck... wave to trucks till the're a speck. Love to look at old car and trucks... saw armadillos, buffalo and bucks. Had a lot of fun on the way ! We're almost to the coast and L.A. So get your kicks... drive on Route 66 ! To the fond memory of car trips when I was a kid.
