Here’s a version of Bobby Troup’s “Route 66″ by a barbershop quartet called Chutzpah!, with a bit of a twist near the end.

Hey, thanks for including our video on your site!
Chutzpah!
For those of you who are interested, it turns out that Israel also has a highway 66, though it’s a rather small road in the north of the country that goes from nowhere to nowhere else. The Hebrew line in the song translates as “It leads from Yokneam to Jenin, 20 kilometers of rocks, that’s all there is on Road 66″
Thanks for the translation, Mort. I haven’t boned up on my Yiddish in quite a while.
