Route 66 Revisited Songtext

von Jimmy LaFave

I need a Route 66
I need a highway fix
One more time
I gotta get out on the highway
Want to listen to my own wheels whine
Well there's no use sittin' lonely
Like a picture in a frame
Gotta go shake a few screws
Loose in my brain
Route 66, highway fix
Feelin' no pain
I don't want to talk about your momma, babe
Don't want to talk about the people that you never seen
Spend your life following Dale Carnegie
I'd rather follow James Dean
I never stay one place long enough
To wear out my welcome mat
I'm lookin' out your window
My tires are gettin' flat
Route 66
Highway fix
That's where it's at
I'm talkin' Route 66
I need a highway fix
Route 66, baby
One more time
Route 66
I need a highway fix
Gotta keep my motor runnin'
'Til the end of the line
I'm talkin' about Chandler, Oklahoma
Cities that never made the first song
Talkin' Todd and Buzz, a '62 Corvette
Talkin' about a girl that done me wrong
I'm talkin' Flagstaff, Arizona
I'll kiss the L.A. lights
'Cause Route 66
Always treats me right
I'm talkin' Route 66
I need a highway fix
Route 66, baby
One more time
Route 66
I need a highway fix
Gotta keep my motor turnin'
Burnin', churnin'
Keep my motor runnin'
To the end of the line
Down that Route 66
Talkin' Route 66
Talkin' one more time
Get your kicks on Route 66
