Baby went to Amsterdam 

She put a little money into travelling 

Now it's so slow, so slow 

Baby went to Amsterdam 

Four, five days for the big canal 

Now it's so slow, so slow 

And I was heading up north 

To a place that I know 

Eating well, sleeping well 

But still I was way, way out of line 

Amsterdam was stuck in my mind 

Oh, it's a kind of stupid groove 

That you can't ignore 

Oh, it's some kind of natural fact 

Sometimes you're just left to be alone 

Baby went to Amsterdam 

She put a little money into travelling 

Now it's so slow, so slow 

Baby went to Amsterdam 

Four, five days for the big canal 

Now it's so slow, so slow 

And I tried to go away 

To a place of my own 

Working hard, fill my time 

From that day on, till I hit the bed 

Amsterdam was stuck in my head 

Oh, it's a kind of stupid groove 

That you can't ignore 

Oh, it's some kind of natural fact 

Sometimes you're just left to be alone
