Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty

 

Well, if you - ever plan to motor West,

Jack, take my way,

That's the highway that's the best

Get your kicks -

On Route Sixty-Six

Well it winds - from Chicago to L.A.

More than two thousand miles all the way

Get your kicks - on Route 66

Now, you go through St. Louis

Joplin, Missouri

And Oklahoma City looks 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 take that California trip

Get your kicks on Route 66...

--------------------- On You Tube, the video titled:

The Rolling Stones - Route 66  1964 (best sound)

uploader / channel:  Anthony R.

and play.

        A little of a Keith Richards interview, at the start, then the song.  You can hear a 1964 audience welcome the band.

(There are other videos, too, by the Stones and by other artists.  The song has been covered a lot.  So good.  Take your pick.)
