Lyrics - Behind The Wheel
[Sunlight Dusk]

My little girl, drive anywhere

Do what you want

I don't care

Tonight I'm in the hands of fate (Apple White: Uh-huh)

I hand myself over on a plate

Now

Oh, little girl, there are times when I feel

I'd rather not be the one behind the wheel

Come, pull my strings

Watch me move, I do anything

Please

Sweet little girl, I prefer

You behind the wheel and me the passenger

Drive, I'm yours to keep

Do what you want, I'm going cheap

Tonight (Apple White reverbing "behind the wheel")

You're behind the wheel tonight

You're behind the wheel tonight (Female Shopper #2: Behind the wheel, I'm the hands of fate, tonight)

You're behind the wheel tonight (Female Shopper #2: Behind the wheel, I'm the hands of fate, tonight)

You're behind the wheel tonight (Female Shopper #2: Behind the wheel, I'm the hands of fate, tonight)

You're behind the wheel tonight (Female Shopper #2: Behind the wheel, I'm the hands of fate, tonight)

[Sunlight Dusk]

Well if you ever plan to motor west

Travel my way, take the highway that's the best

Get your kicks on Route 66

Well it winds from Chicago to L.A.

More than two thousand miles all the way

Get your kicks on Route 66

Well it goes to St. Louis, down to Missouri

Oklahoma City looks so, so pretty

You'll see Amarillo, Gallup, New Mexico

Flagstaff, Arizona, don't forget Wynonna

Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino

If you get hip to this kind of tip

And go take that California trip

Get your kicks on Route 66

[Interlude freestyle]

Well it goes to St. Louis, down to Missouri

Oklahoma City looks so, so pretty (echoed out) Starlight Glimmer: I think Cruz can win the race. Can she make it?

(Audience starts looking at Cruz thinking if she can win)

(Cruz finishes first place and she wins)

(Mater the Greater finishes 2nd)

(Chick Hicks finishes 3rd)

Starlight Glimmer: What a thrill, Cruz Ramirez wins the race! [Sunlight Dusk]

(stretched fade-in) You'll see Amarillo, Gallup, New Mexico

Flagstaff, Arizona, don't forget Wynonna

Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino

If you get hip to this kind of tip

And go take that California trip

Get your kicks on Route 66

Get your kicks on Route 66

Get your kicks on Route 66

Get your kicks on Route 66

Get your kicks on Route 66

Get your kicks on Route 66

Get your kicks on Route 66 Chick Hicks: Welcome back to Chick's Picks with Chick Hicks! I'm your host former and forever Piston Cup champion, Chick Hicks! Rookie Jackson Storm slams the proverbial door on Lightning McQueen! Oh, I couldn't have enjoyed it more if I beaten McQueen myself. Oh, wait. I have!
