Melody: Vikingen (En viking vill ha livets vann) [When Johnny comes marching home]

Life water is a Viking’s friend, Hooray, hooray! And quickly down my throat it went, Hooray, hooray! With fish or oxen or boar or moose, While weaklings set their sodas loose Every Viking worth the title demands some booze! When we of wormwood have run out, Oh fate, oh fate! We carry all the Vikings out, It’s late, they’re late. And then when we rise we’ll sing and eat, And open a bottle of akvavit. Cheers for all the Vikings I’m here to meet! Skål for all the Vikings I’m here to meet!
