  • 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 a 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 a kind of stupid groove
    That you can't ignore
    Oh, it's a 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 Writer/s: Bjorn Yttling, John Eriksson, Peter Moren
