Lyrics

You done danced all night with the

Amarillo Queen.

She got a zipper up her back

and a zircon ring.

She got a faded smile.

You passed out for a while,

but then you jumped back

to life when she called you to sing.

You danced all night,

danced 'til the dawn.

By the morning light,

you'd better get there gone.

With open arms and nowhere to run.

Remember

Amarillo,

Amarillo,

Amarillo,

ooh, Amarillo Queen.

Looking up at the ceiling,

waiting for the dawn.

You come to fix on the feeling there

was something wrong.

Could be the king of beers or the band

and the fizz.

Five-foot-four, heavy,

coming up the stairs.

And the boys gonna hit you like a bolt

from above.

Just a little bit of sense

and a whole lot of shove.

It's never too late to leave

when you're already gone.

Remember

Amarillo,

Amarillo,

darling

Amarillo, Amarillo Queen.

Lay us out for days. I'm drunk in a dizzy

and moonshine haze. Lay us out for days.

I'm drunk in a dizzy and moonshine haze.

Lay us out for days. Drunk in a dizzy

and moonshine haze. Lay us out for days.

I've been drunk for so long, baby.

Lay us out for days. Oh

please, don't you leave that haze.

Oh, not this day, oh so long now,

now. Oh, just for six, seven weeks now,

babe.

Oh, let me pass out for days.

Drunk in a moonshine.
