Verse 1
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
Chorus
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
Interlude

Verse 2
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
Chorus
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
