Route 22 Now Ive been around this big old world and Ive see a thing or two Everywhere they brag bout their home town too Highway One, A-One-A, Beale Street or down the Loop The Sunset Strip, or Route 66 and the Funky Broadway too Theyre all bona fide destinations, about that I wont argue But if you please, you gotta come and see New Yorks Route 22 It starts a little north of the city line from the Bronx through the rich folks homes You really dont have to travel if you want to roam It winds on up through KensicoDAM if it aint a view Id be lying if I wasnt trying to get back on Route 22 Just a little north of Brewster, theres a roadhouse called Red Rooster Get your burgers and friesright before your eyes Those Brewtser Girls, they will give you the eye Cos everywhere I travel I just gotta get home to you For all my money its always sunny on Route 22 Dont even think about stalling until you get to the town of Pawling You find the music you desire.at a little place called the Town Crier Cos everywhere I travel I just gotta get home to you And for all my money its always sunny on my Route 22 Something bout the way this 2-lane road can work its way under your skin The smell of the breeze, the color of the trees and the shops, theyll reel you in And take it all the way youll speak Francais before youre through But dont call me crazy if I drive to Chazy on Route 22 The last time I seen ya, we were walking in Amenia Drive on up to the Berkshires CopakeHoosickRensselaer Cos everywhere I travel I just gotta get home to you And for all my money its always sunny on my Route 22 © 2010 Chris Cassone for Cassongs Music (BMI) All Rights Reserved www.chriscassone.com
