Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into travellin'
Now it's so slow
So slow
[Verse 2]
Baby went to Amsterdam
Four, five days by the big canal
Now it's so slow
So slow
[Verse 3]
And I was heading up north
To a place that I know
Eating well
Sleeping well
[Verse 4]
But still I was way
Way out of line
Amsterdam
Was stuck in my mind
[Verse 5]
Oh, it's some kind of stupid rule
That you can't ignore
Oh, it's some kind of natural fact
Sometimes you're just left to be alone
[Verse 6]
Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into travellin'
Now it's so slow
So slow
[Verse 7]
Baby went to Amsterdam
Four, five days by the big canal
Now it's so slow
So slow
[Verse 8]
And I tried to go away to a place of my own
Working hard to fill my time
From early on till I hit the bed
Amsterdam was stuck in my head
[Verse 9]
Oh, it's some kind of stupid rule
That you can't ignore
Oh, it's some kind of natural fact
Sometimes you're just left to be alone
[Verse 10]
Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into travellin'
Now it's so slow
So slow
[Verse 11]
Baby went to Amsterdam
Four, five days by the big canal
Now it's so slow
So slow
[Verse 12]
Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into travellin'
Now it's so slow
So slow
[Verse 13]
Baby went to Amsterdam
Four, five days by the big canal
Now it's so slow
So slow
Slow
