In the port of Amsterdam there's a sailor who sings
Of the dreams that he brings from the wide open sea
And in the port of Amsterdam there's a sailor who sleeps
While the river bank weeps to the old willow tree
And in the port of Amsterdam there's a sailor who dies
Full of beer, full of cries in a drunken town fight
And in the port of Amsterdam there's a sailor who's born
On a hot muggy morn by the dawn's early light
In the port of Amsterdam where the sailors all meet
There's a sailor who eats only fish heads and tails
And he'll show you his teeth that have rotted too soon
That can haul up the sails that can swallow the moon
And he yells to the cook with his arms open wide
"Oh, bring me more fish throw it down by my side"
And he wants so to belch but he's too full to try
So he stands up and laughs and he zips up his fly
In the port of Amsterdam you can see sailors dance
Paunches bursting their pants grinding women to porch
They've forgotten the tune that their whiskey voice croaked
Splitting the night with the roar of their jokes
And they turn and they dance and they laugh and they lust
Till the rancid sound of the accordion bursts
And then out of the night with their pride in their pants
And the sluts that they tow underneath the street lamps
In the port of Amsterdam there's a sailor who drinks
And he drinks and he drinks and he drinks once again
Oh he drink to the health of the whores of Amsterdam
Who've given their bodies to a thousand other men
It's the bargain, their fitness, their virtues all gone
For a few dirty coins well he just can't go on
Throws his nose to the sky and he aims it up above
And he pisses like I cry for a unfaithful love
In the port of Amsterdam
In the port of Amsterdam
