Amsterdam Lyrics & Chords By Tim Fischer

In Amsterdam I saw the light of day
My mother was a girl you could buy
My father promised her a wedding ring
A promise? Just a lie!

In Amsterdam my mother dreamed about
A better life for me
She tried so hard, though she was down and old
Her dreames were not to be!

A young man came into my life
He kissed my lips and he stroke my face
He died before i was his once
Another came and took his place!

In Amsterdam I saw the light of day
My mother was a girl you could buy
My father promised her a wedding ring
A promise? Just a lie!

Yes, I was told some pretty tales
By every single man I ever knew
They weren't bad, they were just bad
And didn't make my hopes come true!

Each of them promised me a wedding ring
A promise? Just a lie!
In ancient Amsterdam I have become a thing
A boy you can buy!
