Is This The Way To Amarillo Songtext
von Daniel O’Donnell

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Oh when the day is dawnin′
On a Texas Sunday mornin'
Oh how I long to be there
Oh with Marie who′s waitin' 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 huggin' my pillow
Dreamin′ dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weepin′ like a willow
Cryin' 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
Sweet Marie who waits for me

There′s a church bell ringin'
Hear the sound of joy that it's singin′
For the sweet Maria
And the guy who′s comin' to see her

Just beyond the highway
There′s an open plain
And it keeps me goin'
Through the wind and rain

Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night I′ve been huggin' my pillow
Dreamin′ dreams of Amarillo
And Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weepin' like a willow
Cryin′ 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
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
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
