Route 66 continued...

John Reneaud, shooting Route 66 video,  Ludlow, CA July 23 2016.

It has dawned on me that I have not added the lyrics I wrote for my version of Route 66 to the cosmos...  So, the the following includes Mr. Troop's words in the order I sing them, along with my additional lyrics.

"If you want plan to motor west.  Take my way Jack the highway that's the best.  It wanders from Chicago to L.A.,.  That's two-thousand miles each and every way. You travel through St. Louis,  Joplin Missouri, Oklahoma City's, oh, so pretty, you see Amarillo and Gallup New Mexico.  Flagstaff Arizona, don't forget Winona, Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino. 
Get your kicks on Route 66.  Get your kicks on Route 66.
Well, like a million cars drive by each and every day.  Turn the autopilot on let the radio have its way.  The sun shine down 'till the stars do fall above.  Hit the pedal to the metal baby, yea, I think I fall in love.  You travel through St. Louis,  Joplin Missouri, Oklahoma City's, oh, so pretty, you see Amarillo and Gallup New Mexico.  Flagstaff Arizona, don't forget Winona, Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino. 
Get your kicks...  Get your kicks, on Route 66.  Get your kicks...  Get your kicks, on Route 66.
 If you ever need a tip.  When you take that mighty California trip.  Well it wanders from Chicago to L.A.,.  That's two thousand miles each and every way.  Get your kicks.  On route 66.
