As the longboat disappears
Behind the morning mist so clear
They were seeking land could they understand
That they never would return
Chorus:
Out on the last crusade in quest after better days
To conquer it all
Viking funeral; live forevermore
Fought on the barricades
Tales from the battle days
It’s kill or be killed
Pagan minds to find
The tears from the north
On the rivers in the east
Rurik came to unleash the beast
People tried to fight against the Swedish might
But they did not stand a chance
Chorus:
Out on the last crusade in quest after better days
To conquer it all
Viking funeral; live forevermore
Fought on the barricades
Tales from the battle days
Kill or be killed
Pagan minds, the heathens from the north
Out on the last crusade in quest after better days
To conquer it all
Lay down your shield and sword
To dry the tears from the north
Mother Russia today would not be the same
If the vikings hadn’t been
Rimes from the past; destined to last for long
Solo
Mr.Eriksson went to America my friend many years before the rest
Men from the north had an urge to explore it all
So I sing you my song
Chorus
As the longboat disappears
Behind the morning mist so clear
They were seeking land could they understand
That they never would return again
