Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One by one the kingdoms fall
They looked upon this isle and took it all
Harbingers of pain
Edmund the martyr, cut down by a dane
On the orders of Ivar the Boneless
Barbarian
[Verse 2]
Remorseless Norsemen swim ashore
The eastern coast belongs to us no more
Shirtless in the rain
The heathen army's upon us once again
Led by the sons of Ragnar
[Verse 3]
Barbarian, war
Barbarian, war
[Verse 4]
One by one the kingdoms fall
They looked upon this isle and took it all
Harbingers of pain
Edmund the martyr, cut down by a dane
On the orders of Ivar the Boneless
[Verse 5]
Barbarian, war, led by the sons of Ragnar
Barbarian, war, led by the sons of Ragnar
[Verse 6]
Reducing the feeble citadels to ashes and blood stain
Enslaving the sweet women folk, whilst every man is slain
We'll spare perhaps a child or two, that our legend may grow
We'll take your precious horses, leave your corpses in the snow
We'll march onward to Mercia and carve the land a scar
In case you all are wondering, we are the sons of Ragnar
[Verse 7]
Barbarian, war, led by the sons of Ragnar
Barbarian, war, led by the sons of Ragnar
