Is This the Way to Cross the Street? Lyrics

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
