On a Texas Sunday mornin'
With Marie who's waitin' for me there
Ain't this half as pretty as
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night I've been hug
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
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
There's a church bell ringing
With a song of joy that it's singing
And the guy who's coming to see her
Through the wind and rain
This is the way to Amarillo
Every night I've been hug
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo
And Sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
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?
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha -la -la -la -la -la -la -la
And Marie who waits for me
And Marie, who waits for me?
