Words and Music by Bobby Troup
“If you ever plan to motor west,
Travel my way, take the highway that is best.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.
It winds from chicago to la,
More than two thousand miles all the way.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six”
(Bobby Troup wrote this song during a cross-country drive. Orignally titled Route 40 but 66 rhymed better).
