Song lyrics

• If you ever plan to motor west,
  Travel my way, take the highway that is best.
  Get your kicks on route sixty-six.
  • "Route 66", first sung by Nat King Cole, 1946

• If she walks by, the men folks get engrossed,
  She can't help it, the girl can't help it,
  If she winks an eye, the bread slice turn to toast,
  She can't help it, the girl can't help it,
  If she got a lot, of what they call the most,
  She can't help it, the girl can't help it.
  • "The Girl Can't Help It", first sung by Little Richard

• Someone’s been eating my porridge said the daddy bear,
  Someone’s been eating my porridge said the mama bear,
  Hey Ba-ba Re-bear said the little wee bear someone has broken my chair!
  • "The Three Bears", first sung by the Page Cavanaugh Trio (1946)
