Amsterdam Lyrics


Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into traveling
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 some 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 traveling
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 got 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 some 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 traveling
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
Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into traveling
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, slow

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Dutch folk singer from the province of Groningen. Most of his songs are in the dialect of this province, a language related to the other "Platt-duutsch"-dialects of the eastern Netherlands and northern Germany. The songs deal with the lives of people and places in the countryside of Groningen. Ede Staal (born on August 2nd 1941) recorded his first single in 1973, though his first real success didn’t come until 1982, when his song 'Mien Toentje' (My Garden) became very popular as the jingle of a gardening show on a local radio station, Radio Noord.
