[Chorus]
Amsterdam, oh Amsterdam
How I love you, Amsterdam
When I get there, I'm gonna kiss the ground
That you stand on, Amsterdam

[Verse 1]
I left my home and I left my friends
Said I'll be back but I don't know when
Set my sail to the restless wind
So long, oh Amsterdam

[Verse 2]
I picked plums up in Yakima
And I picked pears down in Arkansas
Even learned how to say "you all"
But I still miss Amsterdam

[Chorus]
Amsterdam, oh Amsterdam
How I love you, Amsterdam
When I get there, I'm gonna kiss the ground
That you stand on Amsterdam

[Verse 3]
I did my thing in Tokyo
Tried my luck in Kokomo
Searched for Bill in Buffalo
But I still miss Amsterdam
[Verse 4]
I picked peaches in a Georgia town
And I picked cotton down in Birmingham
And the day I get out of Alabam'
I'm goin' back to Amsterdam

[Chorus]
Amsterdam, oh Amsterdam
How I love you, Amsterdam
When I get there, I'm gonna kiss the ground
That you stand on Amsterdam

[Chorus]
Amsterdam, oh Amsterdam
How I love you, Amsterdam
When I get there, I'm gonna kiss the ground
That you stand on Amsterdam
