Dreadnoughts Amsterdam


Johnny was an Englishman, from Derbyshire was he He had a wife so beautiful, had children one to three He loved them all so dearly, as only Johnny could And always did exactly as he should

Then one day he took a trip across the channel white To where the streets are narrow, and bathed in crimson light He lives there to this day inside his dirty rotten shell This British lion now becomes a lamb

Amsterdam!

William was a sailor, upon the raging main Made port in London, Boston, New York, Germany and Spain He loved the girls so dearly, until their hearts were won Then sailed away into the setting sun

Breakfast on the table, Porter when you're dry She'll love you in the morning, she'll love you 'till you die She'll love you 'till the day she's spent all your pay She's the devil's holy water by the dram

Amsterdam!

So come all ye sailors, who live upon the main Remember dear old Jimmy when he left upon that train He wanders round old Amsterdam a-lookin' for his fix And Willy's life is never free of kicks

Breakfast on the table, Porter when you're dry She'll love you in the morning, she'll love you 'till you die She'll love you 'till the day she's spent all your pay She's the devil's holy water by the dram

Amsterdam!
