Chuck Berry Picture
Charles Edward Anderson "Chuck" Berry (born October 18, 1926) is an immensely influential American guitarist, singer, and composer, and one of the pioneers of rock & roll music. Berry was born in St. Louis, Missouri and was part of the first group to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on its opening in 1986. Though playing what was considered Rhythm & Blues (R & B), in retrospect Berry is now seen by many as more of a rockabilly (rather than R & B) singer. However, he was the real poet of 1950s rock 'n' roll.

Route 66 Lyrics

Chuck Berry

Well if you ever plan to motor west
Just take my way thats the highway thats the best
Get your kicks on Route 66
Well it winds from Chicago to L.A.
More than 2000 miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66
Well it goes from St Louis, down to Missouri
Oklahoma city looks oh so pretty
Youll see Amarillo and Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona dont forget Winona
Kingsman, Barstaw, San Bernadino

Would you get hip to this kindly trip
And go take that California trip
Get your kick on Route 66
Well it goes from St. Louis, down to Missouri
Oklahoma city looks oh so pretty
Youll see Amarillo and Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona dont forget Winona
Kingsman, Barstaw, San Bernadino

Would you get hip to this kindly trip
And go take that California trip
Get your kick on Route 66
Get your kick on Route 66?
