(feat. Peter Kay)
Sha la la la la la la laX3
(Verse)
When the day is dawning,
On a Texas Sunday Morning
How I long to be there
With Marie whos waiting for me there
Every lonely city
Where i hang my hat
Aint as half as pretty,
As where my baby's at
(Chorus)
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night ive been hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
Ive been weeping like a willow
Crying over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la X3
And Marie who waits for me
Theres a church bell ringing
With a song of joy that its singing
For the sweet Maria
And the guy whos coming to see her
Just beyond the highway
Theres an open plane and it keeps me going
Through the wind and rain
(Chorus)
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night ive been hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
Ive been weeping like a willow
Crying over Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la X3
And Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la X3
And Marie who waits for me
(sing till fades)

Sleep like a baby,
my little lady,
Dream till the sunrise
creeps into your eyes
Dream till the sunrise
Turns on the day.
In the Avenues and Alleyways
while you sleep there's a whole world coming alive
Able and his brother, fighting one another
in and out of every dive
The Avenues and Alleyways
where the strong and the quick alone can survive
Look around the jungle
see the rough and tumble
Listen to a squealer cry
Then a little later
in the morning paper
Read about the way he died.
Wake up my pretty
Go to the city
Stay through the daytime
safe in the sunshine
stay till the daytime
turns into night.
In the Avenues and Alleyways
Where a mans gotta work out which side he's on
any way he chooses
chances are he loses
no one gets to live too long
the avenues and alleyways
Where the soul of a man is easy to buy
everybody's wheeling
everybody's steeling
all the low are living high
Every city's got em
can we ever stop em
some of us are gonna try.

In Reno town for a few dollars down
you can buy yourself a separation.
And say good-bye to the love
and the life that we shared together.
Sign it away with a stroke of a hotel pen.
All of the dreams that we had
will be gone forever
I can't believe we're through
I won't give up on you.
How can I stand aside
and watch a good love die ?
Don't go down to Reno
stay another night.
One night and you may find
I'll make you change your mind
don't go down to Reno
stay a little bit longer.
Try to remember the day
when the bells were chimin'
picture the clothes that I wore
and I know you'll smile.
Think of the nights when we knew
that our star was climbin'
I can't throw that away
I've got to make you stay.
How can I stand aside...
