Ladies and gentlemen
Mr. Tony Krysztek
When the day is dawnin'
On a Texas Sunday mornin'
How I long to be there
With Marie who's waitin' for me there
Every lonely city
Where I hang my head
Ain't this half as pretty as
where my babies at?
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night I've been hug
ging my pillow
Dreaming dreams of Am arillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
Crying over an amaryllis
You speak, 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, waits for me?
There's a church bell ringing
With a 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 flame
And it keeps me going
Through the wind and rain
This is the way to Amarillo
Every night I've been hug
ging 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
Can't sleep, Maria, please 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
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
Sha -la -la -la -la -la -la -la
And Mar ie who waits for me
And Marie, who waits for me?
And Marie, waits for me?
