Traveling On Route 66

Travelin’ down the highway On a road carved from the dust Was a way to search for mobility Where highways were a must The road was numbered 66 Made adventure broad and wide With a thirst for independence It truly turned the tide It made the journey much easier To travel from west to east As they scraped out that road the hard way The thirst for travel never ceased Today you’ll see the markers To show right where you are Don’t worry, folks you won’t get lost Whether traveling near or far You might see an antique gas pump And statues along the way So many sites you’ll come across Along this historic road today So, do you want to take ride to see What your ancestor’s envisioned You’ll see it’s not a modern freeway But a needed surveyor’s mission!
