Lyrics

Road Trip

Mama got the cooler - daddy got the maps
He said, come over kids, let me show you where it's at
This vacation we're not flyin or sailin on a ship,
Gonna take you on your first road trip

So we packed up our backpacks with crayons and books
Daddy got his fishin' pole and a whole lotta hooks
We mapped out the plan, we wrote out a route
Gassed it on up and gave that horn a toot

We went to Chi-town, Sugarland, Baton Rouge
Shoofly, Sleepyeye, Kalamazoo
I saw Loveland, Kissimmee, Ol' Mississip!
Yea, we're takin' our first road trip

We saw new kinds of places, ate different kinds of food
Saw lots of people livin' in different neighborhoods
It's a great, big, beautiful world outside
Everybody smilin' and wavin' hi

Chorus

Daddy packed all of his rock 'n' roll songs
We went boppin' down the highway singin' along
Goin', "Sha-Na-Na, Diddy Dum Diddy Doo,
Be-Bop-A-Lu-La, Whop Bam Boom!"

We pulled back in the driveway a couple weeks later
Smoke was pourin' out of that ol' carburetor
And Daddy had this funny little look in his eye
Looked over at Mama - gave her a smile
He said, "Oh, Mama that sure was fun
Brought me on back to when we were young
I'm so happy that we had these kids
And we took 'em on their first road trip!"

Chorus

Next stop Friendship, gotta go to Chocolate Bayou,
Yea, there's Dinky Town and Big Sky, too
Ho-ho-kus, Belle Rose, Teaneck and Hicksville.
Come on! Come on! Let's Go!
