Gerry Wall
hello amsterdam
Here Iâm not entirely
Yesterday donât matter to me
Goodbye Saskatchewan, hello Amsterdam
Here I am necessarily.
I trade on promise and belief
I am an angel and a thief
So rub your tears away, you pay so why not play?
Donât look for premise or relief.
Light as a feather
I shouldnât have to work so hard for
Not much pleasure
All these streets are filled with treasure.
Iâm not looking for false charity
Another victim wonât work for me
Mischief is what I got
Youâd do well to laugh it off
Go on or leave it to me.
I decline if you offer up cash
In the words of the profits thatâs last
But the payday is coming on fast
