Amarillo Lyrics - Singles - Tony Christie

Sha la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la 

When the day is dawning 

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 

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 

Sha la la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la 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 

And it keeps me going 

Through the wind and rain 

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 

Sha la la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la la 

And Marie who waits for me 

Sha la la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la la 

And Marie who waits for me 

Sha la la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la la 

Sha la la la la la la 

And Marie who waits for me
