A wooden dragon In front of the boat Raised sails And shining swords Flat-bottomed ships A lot of oars Fast attacks Make us rich A clan of barbarians That's my gang We've got to work To devastate and steal Ravenous men With mighty swords Drinking mead Help us Lord! Ravenous men Will rob you blind Steal your food And all they find Sailing in a month Praying to Thor To give us luck And ship-loads of gold Follow the rivers To ravage and lay waste Pillage the villages Burn the towns Take some slaves To trade for gold The rest we've slain Blood-stained rain Ravenous men With mighty swords Drinking mead Help us Lord! Ravenous men Will rob you blind Steal your food And all they find Home at last To meet the wife Divide the gold Honor the dead Repair the boat To the next crusade Ravenous men Will rob you again!
