Took a little ride one morning
Along the famous Route 66
It is still the best place around
To get those travel kicks
It looked like a picture postcard
As the fog nestled amongst the trees
Windmills rose above them
They were whirling in the breeze
Stopped to get a bite to eat
Played the ole’ Jukebox too
What a fun day it was
I know you’d enjoy it too
It’s something for everyone
Buckle the kids up in their seats
And take off down the road
Maybe stop for a bite of treats
There is nothing quite like it
On a sunny day in May
Take my advice and have
A Route 66 kind of day!

Great play on a popular song, tieing it in to a current, real-life situation, creating an image that all can relate to. Well, crafted, too, with imagery and structured rhyme. Nice work.
