Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

My baby never was a cheatin' kind
But It wasn't cause the ladies didn't try
Now ev'ry where we go
They're walkin' 'round him slow
Givin' him a flutter and a sign
Now I got him past that redhead in Atlanta
Lord I walked all over that blackeyed cajun queen
But outside of Amarillo he found his thrill I tell you
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
Put in another quarter
Push Dolly and then Porter
While he racks up fifty thousand on the pinball machine

If you only hadn't stopped in for coffee
If someone hadn't played the window up above
Oh 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 machines is in the corner
But 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 the 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
Put in another quarter
Push Dolly and then Porter
While he racks up fifty thousand on the 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
Put in another quarter
Push Dolly and then Porter
While he racks up fifty thousand on the 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
Put in another quarter
Push Dolly and then Porter
While he racks up fifty thousand on the pinball machine
