Is this the way to Amarillo

//: 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 dabing 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


Refrén:

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    


There's a church bell ringin' Hear the song of joy that it's singin' 

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

Refrén:

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
