Amsterdam - John Denver[00:00:00]

In the port Of Amsterdam there’s a sailor who sings[00:00:17]

Of the dreams that he brings from the wide open sea[00:00:23]

In the port of Amsterdam there’s a sailor who sleeps[00:00:30]

While the river bank weeps to the old willow tree[00:00:35]

In the port of Amsterdam there’s a sailor who dies[00:00:44]

Full of beer full of cries in a drunken down fight[00:00:50]

But in the port of Amsterdam there’s a sailor who’s born[00:00:56]

On a muggy hot morn by the dawns early light[00:01:04]

In the port of Amsterdam where the sailors all meet[00:01:15]

There’s a sailor who eats only fish heads and tails[00:01:22]

He will show you his teeth that have rotted too soon[00:01:28]

That can swallow the moon that can haul up the sails[00:01:35]

And he yells to the cook with his arms open wide[00:01:42]

Bring me more fish put it down by my side[00:01:49]

And he wants so to belch but he’s too full to try[00:01:55]

So he gets up and he laughs and he zips up his fly[00:02:01]

In the port of Amsterdam you can see sailors dance[00:02:08]

Paunches bursting their pants grinding women to pot[00:02:14]

They’ve forgotten the tune that their whiskey voice croak[00:02:20]

Splitting the night with the roar of their jokes[00:02:26]

And they turn and they dance and they laugh and they lust[00:02:32]

To the rancid sounds of the accordion burst[00:02:40]

Then their out into the night with their pride in their pants[00:02:45]

With a slut that they tow underneath the street lamps[00:02:51]

In the port of Amsterdam there’s a sailor who drinks[00:02:57]

And he drinks and he drinks and he drinks once again[00:03:03]

He drinks to the health of the whores of Amsterdam[00:03:08]

Who have promised their love to a thousand other men[00:03:15]

And they bargain their bodies and their virtue long gone[00:03:20]

For a few dirty coins and then when he can’t go on[00:03:26]

He plants his nose in the sky and he wipes it up above[00:03:32]

And he spits like I'd cry for an unfaithful love[00:03:37]

In the port of Amsterdam[00:03:43]

In the port of Amsterdam[00:03:46]

In the port of Amsterdam[00:03:49]
