Viking Song
(tune: "Jingle Bells")
Words by Beth Wheeler
1992

				Sailing o'er the seas
				In an open dragon ship,
				Trying not to freeze,
				Hoping we won't tip,
				Clash of swords goes 'cling'
	   			Making spirits bright,
				What fun it is to sail and sing
	   			A slaying song tonight!

CHORUS: Oh.... Hack and slash, hack and slash Laughing all the way, Oh what fun it is to be A berserker today, Hack and slash, hack and slash Laughing all the way, Oh what fun it is to be A berserker today!
A day or two ago We thought we'd have a fight, And soon the Valkyries Were gathered on our right, The fight was long and grim, Misfortune seemed our lot, We broke into a battle hymn But hoarse was all we got!
CHORUS
Now the ground is red, Slay them while they're young, Crack an old foe's head, And sing this slaying song, Just get yourself a sword, Two-forty for the fray, Then go and fight the enemy horde Until they run away!
CHORUS
