Immigrant Song Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun, where the hot springs blow
The hammer of the gods will drive our ship to new lands
To fight the horde, screaming and praying
Valhalla, I am coming, yeah

On we sweep with a threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore

We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun, where the hot springs blow
How soft your fields, so green
Can whisper tales of gore of how we calmed the tides of war
We are your overlords, yeah

On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins
For peace and the trust can win the day, despite all your losing

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
[Instrumental Outro]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
