We started out with good intentions
Making love right there in the kitchen
You and me were getting along just fine
Got along just fine
More than crazy about one another
I was your man, and you were my lover
Glad that I was yours and you were mine
For awhile, I could do no wrong
You laughed at my jokes and you danced to the song
Not too bad for an Amarillo country boy
My little country boy
I said if we could just stay together
It could be just like this forever
Finer things in life we would enjoy
You told me you thought that I was wrong
You said our love, it wouldn't last too long
I don't want to leave you all alone
So should I stay or should I go back home?
Am I right or Amarillo?
Do I stay here with you or hit the road?
Am I right or Amarillo?
I love you, but I can always go back home
♪
Now pretty soon it was just like I figured
You told me that you'd reconsidered
I could stay with you and be your man
Be your loving man
But now it seems there's a brand new problem
Country boys learn their lessons when they're taught 'em
I've learned about as much as I can stand
Now I'm the one who thinks that I was wrong
I don't think our love is gonna last too long
I really, really, really hate to leave you all alone
But Texas is a-calling me back home
Am I right or Amarillo?
Do I stay here with you or hit the road?
Am I right or Amarillo?
I love you, but I can always go back home
Now It might be as flat as a pancake
But how much heartache can one man take
Amarillo, we've been too long apart
Been too long apart
There's no need for me to keep on talking
If I'm a going, I'd better start walking
Am I right or Amarillo never broke my heart, no, oh
