Peaked Billboard position #2 in 1946

Well if you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way, take the highway that's the best
Get your kicks on Route 66

Well it winds from Chicago to LA
More than two thousand miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66

(Well it goes to St. Louis, down to Missouri
Oklahoma City looks so, so pretty
You'll see Amarillo, Gallup, New Mexico)
Flagstaff, Arizona, don't forget Wynonna
Klingman, Barstow, San Bernardino

If you get hip to this kind of trip
When you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66

(If you ever plan to motor West
Go west, it's best, travel my way
Take the highway that's the best
Get your kicks on Route 66
Big 6, 6
It winds from Chicago to L.A. Califor- n-i-a
Almost 2 thousand miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66.)

Now you go thru St. Luie, Joplin, Missouri
And Okalahoma, City is mighty pretty
You'll see Amarillo, Gallup, New Mexico
(Flagstaff, Arizona), don't forget Wynonna
Klingman, Barstow, San Bernardino

Won't you get hip to this timely tip
Take a trip, take a tip
When you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66
Make your way on (66)
Get tray gay on (66)
Get your kicks on Route 66
