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 dawning
On a Texas Sunday
Morning
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
Huggin' 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
