Jimmy Lafave - Route 66 Revisited lyrics

rate me

I need a Route 66

I need a highway fix

One more time

I got to 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

Got to 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 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, baby

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

One more time

Route 66

I need a highway fix

Got to keep my motor runnin'

'til the end of the line

I'm talkin' about Chandler, Oklahoma

Cities that never made the first song

I’m 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

Got to 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
