[Verse 1]
I take her down to Houston then to New Orleans
She's yellin' out to me, "That's too far east"
I turn around just to head back west
And before you know it, she's my Texas best
I got my baby on the 66
There's a Trans Am tailin' me to Texarkana
A real cowboy by the name of Bandit
I tip my hat, then we keep on movin'
Black top, back shots, rhythm and blues
I got my baby on the 66
[Chorus]
Played a show at a casino in Reno
Nevada girls love to dance and do their hair
California girls are automatic
Foot to the floor, I gotta have it, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm pullin' cork, playin' with a Colt 45
I'm gettin' in a river just to get out alivе
Pushin' 85 in Colorado
Right when a deer took both my headlights
I got my baby on the 66
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Playеd a show at a casino in Reno
Nevada girls love to dance and do their hair
California girls are automatic
Foot to the floor, I gotta have it, yeah, yeah
[Outro]
Well, I made into Reno in a couple of pieces
Now I'm California's good boy, bad boy, beach boy
Turn around just to head back east
Salt flat, salt lake, soakin' in peace
I had my baby on the 66
I had my baby on the 66
