The Berserker at Stamford Bridge

3 views

Lyrics

We had marched all night long
 Now silently we stood upon the ridge
 An army of fifteen thousand strong
 Looking down at Stamford Bridge
 The English stood on the hill
 Caught off guard we had to retreat
 The omens of this day boded ill
 The river cold and wide lay at our feet
 One man walked out on the bridge
 With Dane axe held firm in his mighty hand
 Alone he stood against our foes
 A giant Berserker of a man
 ♪
 Charge! The order to attack
 Nothing now can hold us back
 Our entire force pours down the slope
 Now, abandon all of your hope
 Death! Move in for the kill
 Today Norsemen blood will spill
 ♪
 Englishmen! I am waiting here
 In my heart I know not an ounce of fear
 We are waiting here my trusted axe and me
 Just come at me, I will not flee
 Death! I know that it awaits
 Soon I will enter Valhalla's gates!
 ♪
 On the bridge we met his axe
 While he stood, none could pass
 His axe cut deep, through flesh and bone
 He held the bridge all on his own
 Forty men, died by his steel
 The only way we could make him kneel
 Was to send four men out on the stream
 And sting the bastard from beneath
 From beneath
