(Emmylou Harris/Rodney Crowell)
2
My baby never was the cheatin' kind
3
But it wasn't 'cause the ladies didn't try
4
Now everywhere we go
5
They're walkin' 'round him slow
6
Givin' him a flutter and a sigh
7
Now I got him past that redhead in Atlanta
8
Lord I walked all over that black-eyed cajun queen
9
But outside of Amarillo, he found his thrill, I'll tell you
10
Oh, I lost him to a jukebox and a pinball machine
11
Oh Amarillo what'd you want my baby for
12
Oh Amarillo now he won't come home no more
13
You done played a trick on me
14
Hooked him in the first degree
15
While he put another quarter
16
Push Dolly and then Porter
17
While he racks up fifty thousand on the pinball machine
18
If we only hadn't stopped in there for coffee
19
If someone hadn't played The Window Up Above
20
He'd still be mine today
21
But he heard those fiddles play
22
One look and then I knew this must be love
23
Oh that pinball machine was in the corner
24
Well he saw the lights and he had to hear 'em ring
25
And he never was the same after he won his first free game
26
Oh I lost him to a jukebox and a pinball machine
27
Oh Amarillo what'd you want my baby for
28
Oh Amarillo now he won't come home no more
29
You done played a trick on me
30
Hooked him in the first degree
31
While he put another quarter
32
Push Dolly and then Porter
33
While he racks up fifty thousand on the pinball machine
34
Oh Amarillo what'd you want my baby for
35
Oh Amarillo now he won't come home no more
36
You done played a trick on me
37
Hooked him in the first degree
38
While he put another quarter
39
Push Dolly and then Porter
40
While he racks up fifty thousand on the pinball machine
