Song lyrics Marianne Faithfull - Port Of Amsterdam
[00:01.34] In the port of Amsterdam
[00:04.03] There's a sailor who sings
[00:07.49] Of the dreams that he brings
[00:10.46] From the wide open sea
[00:13.92] In the port of Amsterdam
[00:17.38] There's a sailor who sleeps
[00:20.62] While the river bank weeps
[00:24.27] To the old willow tree
[00:28.31] In the port of Amsterdam
[00:30.88] There's a sailor who dies
[00:34.24] Full of beer, full of cries
[00:37.57] In a drunken town fight
[00:41.46] In the port of Amsterdam
[00:44.61] There's a sailor who's born
[00:47.70] On a hot muggy morn
[00:51.14] By the dawn's early light
[01:05.22] In the port of Amsterdam
[01:07.68] Where the sailors all meet
[01:09.72] There's a sailor who eats
[01:12.13] Only fish heads and tails
[01:14.64] And he'll show you his teeth
[01:16.63] That have rotted too soon
[01:18.90] That can haul up the sails
[01:21.50] That can swallow the moon
[01:23.99] And he yells to the cook
[01:25.97] With his arms open wide
[01:28.26] Hey, bring me more fish
[01:30.44] Throw it down by my side
[01:33.25] And he wants so to belch
[01:35.44] But he's too full to try
[01:37.92] So he stands up and laughs
[01:39.97] And he zips up his fly
[01:42.58] In the port of Amsterdam
[01:44.71] You can see sailors dance
[01:46.44] Paunches bursting their pants
[01:48.90] Grinding women to port
[01:51.77] They've forgotten the tune
[01:53.76] That their whiskey voice croaked
[01:56.68] Splitting the night
[01:58.48] With the roar of their jokes
[02:01.14] And they turn and they dance
[02:03.01] And they laugh and they lust
[02:05.14] Till the rancid sound of the accordion bursts
[02:10.41] And out of the night
[02:12.63] With their pride in their pants
[02:15.13] And the sluts that they tow
[02:17.34] Underneath the street lamps
[02:19.74] In the port of Amsterdam
[02:22.12] There's a sailor who drinks
[02:24.37] And he drinks and he drinks
[02:26.48] And he drinks once again
[02:28.76] He'll drink to the health
[02:30.79] Of the whores of Amsterdam
[02:33.27] Who've given their bodies
[02:35.55] To a thousand other men
[02:38.29] Yeah, they've bargained their virtue
[02:40.25] Their goodness all gone
[02:42.63] For a few dirty coins
[02:45.23] Well he just can't go on
[02:47.58] Throws his nose to the sky
[02:49.87] And he aims it up above
[02:52.15] And he pisses like I cry
[02:54.27] On the unfaithful love
[02:56.96] In the port of Amsterdam
[02:59.24] In the port of Amsterdam
[03:44.80]
