Kevin Coyne Amsterdam Lyrics

Painted faces everywhere, I do not see a one Deas dogs are lying upside down, moulding in the sun I'm looking for a friendly face, something to remind me of home But the girl with the lipstick and the flashing eyes she doesn't give me none

Chorus: Down in the Vondel Park, kids are gonna jump and shout Down in the Melkweg, the heat is on It's smoking and knocking them out, that's Amsterdam, Amsterdam. Somebody give me a ticket, I want to fly back home I want to see my best friend cause I know she's all alone She's the sweet and lightness I've been looking for Honey, honey, where are you? Just can't take no more
Chorus

Down in the Vondel Park, kids are gonna jump and shout Down in the Melkweg, it is hot It's smoking and knocking them out, that's Amsterdam Well I'm looking, looking for somewhere, a hole to hide I'm riding on the cobble stones but I haven't got a plane to ride Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day they'll let me go away Oh baby, there's so many many times and I hate to feel this way

Chorus

Amsterdam, well that's Amsterdam, Amsterdam, Amsterdam, Amsterdam
