LYRIC

When the day is dawnin’

On a Texas Sunday mornin’

How I long to be there

With Marie who’s waitin’ for me there.

Ev’ry lonely city where I hang my hat

Ain’t as half as pretty as where my baby’s at.


Is this the way to Amarillo?

Ev’ry night I’ve been huggin’ my pillow

Dreamin’ dreams of Amarillo

And sweet Marie who waits for me.

Show me the way to Amarillo

I’ve been weepin’ like a willow

Cryin’ over Amarillo

And sweet Marie who waits for me.


Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

And Marie who waits for me.


There’s a church bell ringin’

Hear the sound of joy that it’s singin’

For the sweet Maria

And the guy who’s comin’ to see her.

Just beyond the highway

Lies an open plain

And it keeps me goin’

Through the wind and rain.


Is this the way to Amarillo?

Ev’ry night I’ve been huggin’ my pillow

Dreamin’ dreams of Amarillo

And sweet Marie who waits for me.

Show me the way to Amarillo

I’ve been weepin’ like a willow

Cryin’ over Amarillo

And sweet Marie who waits for me.


Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

And Marie who waits for me.


Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

And Marie who waits for me.


Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la la

And Marie who waits for me.
