When the day is dawning on a Texas Sunday morning
A D A E
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

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 lala lala la, and Marie who waits for me

There's a church bell ringing. Hear the 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 plain
F C Bm E
and it keeps me going throught the wind and rain
