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 LA,
More than two thousand miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.

Now you go through Saint Louis, Joplin, Missouri
And Oklahoma City is mighty pretty
Can't you see Amarillo,Gallup, New Mexico, Flagstaff Arizona
Don't forget Winona, Kingman, Barstow, San Bernandino

Won't you get hip to this mighty trip,
When you take that California trip
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six
