Is this the way to amarillo

Sha la la la la la

When the day is dawning,

On a Texas Sunday Morning

How I long to be there

With Marie whos waiting for me there

Every lonely city

Where i hang my hat

Aint as half as pretty,

As where my baby's at

Is this the way to Amarillo?

Every night ive been hugging my pillow

Dreaming dreams of Amarillo

And sweet Marie who waits for me

Show me the way to Amarillo

Ive been weeping like a willow

Crying over Amarillo

And sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha la la la la la la And Marie who waits for me

Theres a church bell ringing

hear the song of joy that its singing

For the sweet Maria

And the guy whos coming to see her

Just beyond the highway

Theres an open plane and it keeps me going

Through the wind and rain

Is this the way to Amarillo?

Every night ive been hugging my pillow

Dreaming dreams of Amarillo

And sweet Marie who waits for me

Show me the way to Amarillo

Ive been weeping like a willow

Crying over Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha la la la la la la And Marie who waits for me
