Albert West - amarillo lyrics

rate me

<b>amarillo</b> by <i>Albert West</i><br />When the day is dawning

on a Texas sunday morning

How I long to be there

with Mary who's waiting for me there

Every lonely city

where I hang my head

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

dreaming dreams of Amarillo

and sweet Mary who's waits for me

Show me the way to Amarillo

I've been weepin' like a willow

crying over Amarillow

and sweet Mary who waits for me

and Mary who waits for me

There's a churchbell ringing

hear the song of joy that it's singinging

for the sweet Maria

and a guy who's coming to see her

just beyond the highway

there's an open place

and it keeps me going

through the wind and rain

Is this the way to Amarillo

every night I've been huggin' my pillow

dreaming dreams of Amarillo

and sweet Mary who's waits for me

Show me the way to Amarillo

I've been weepin' like a willow

crying over Amarillow

and sweet Mary who waits for me

and Mary who waits for me
