Testo Amarillo - Kathy Mattea
Testo della canzone Amarillo (Kathy Mattea), tratta dall'album Lonesome Standard Time
My baby never was the cheatin' kind
But it wasn't 'cause the ladies didn't try
Now everywhere we go
They're walkin' around him slow
Givin' him a flutter and a sigh
Now I got him past that redhead in Atlanta
Lord, I walked all over that black-eyed Cajun queen
But outside of Amarillo
He found his thrill, I tell you
Oh, I lost him to a jukebox and a pinball machine
Oh, Amarillo, what'd you want my baby for?
Oh, Amarillo, now he won't come home no more
You done played a trick on me
Hooked him in the first degree
While I put another quarter
For Stallion and Porter
While he racks up fifty thousand on a pinball machine
If we only hadn't stopped in there for coffee
If someone hadn't played "The Window Up Above"
He'd still be mine today
But he heard those fiddles play
One look and then I knew this must be love
Oh, that pinball machine was in the corner
Well, he saw the lights and he had to hear 'em ring
And he never was the same
After he won his first free game
Oh, I lost him to a jukebox and a pinball machine
Oh, Amarillo, what'd you want my baby for?
Oh, Amarillo, now he won't come home no more
You done played a trick on me
Hooked him in the first degree
While I put another quarter
For Stallion and Porter
While he racks up fifty thousand on a pinball machine
Oh, Amarillo, what'd you want my baby for?
Oh, Amarillo, now he won't come home no more
You done played a trick on me
Hooked him in the first degree
While I put another quarter
For Stallion and Porter
While he racks up fifty thousand on a pinball machine
