Strophe)
When the day is dawniing on a Tecas Sunday morning
How i long to be there
With Marie who´s waitiing for me there
Every lonely city where i hang my hat
Aint as half as pretty as where my babi´s at
Refrain)
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
Interlude)
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
Strophe)
There´s a church bell ringing
Here the song of joy thats 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
Refrain)
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
