Sha-la-la la-la la-la la
Sha-la-la la-la la-la la
Sha-la-la la-la la-la la
When the
day is dawnin'
On a Texas
Sunday mornin'
How I long
to be there
With Marie who's
waiting for me there
Every 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
Every night I've been
hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams
of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who
waits for me
Show me the way
to Amarillo
I've been weeping
like a willow
Crying 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 ringing
Hear the song of joy
that it's singing
For the sweet Maria
and the guy who's
coming to see her
Just beyond
the highway
there's an open plain
And it keeps me going
through the
wind and rain
Is this the way
to Amarillo
Every night I've been
hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams
of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who
waits for me
Show me the way
to Amarillo
I've been weeping
like a willow
Crying 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
