Rider
[unknown] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Så rider jag mig över tolvmilan skog
Me'n de andra så söteligen sovo

Så rider jag mig litet längre fram
Där fick jag höra klockorna de ringa

God dag god dag mina ringaremän
För vem ringen i denna ringning

Vi ringa alltför en ungersvens mö
Som skall uti jorden att sova
Trallallera trallallera
Som skall uti jorden att sova

Så rider jag mig litet längre fram
Där stodo de grävare och grovo

God dag god dag mina grävaremän
För vem gräver ni denna graven

Vi gräver den för en ungersvens mö
Som skall uti jorden att vila
Trallallera trallallera
Som skall uti jorden att vila

Så rider jag mig till min svärfars gård
Som förr har varit rosenderöder

Först frågar jag efter kärestan min
Och se'n efter svärfar och svärmor

Så kommer jag mig litet längre in
Og där stodo de två och henne svepte
Trallallera trallallera
Där stodo de två och henne svepte

Jag krusar och kammar mitt fagergula hår
Och ville följa henne till graven
Trallallera trallallera
Och ville följa henne till graven

Och fröknar och jungfrur de togo i en ring
De sad' jag skull' få välja ut en annan

En sådan en flicka såsom hon var
Finns ej i sju konungariken




Trallallera trallallera
Finns ej i sju konungariken

[Intro]
Wha-
Uh
Let's see if you a rider
Let's see if you a rider
That sounds clean

[Pre-Chorus]
Hey
Let's see if you a rider for real
I don't know if you a rider for real
I'ma fight for your love, survival for real
Uh-huh

[Chorus]
Let's see if you a rider for real
I really wanna see if you a rider for real
Don't think just 'cause you grip the wheel
Makes you a straight up rider for real
I don't know, I don't know
If I should give you the key to my soul
I don't know, no, I don't know
My paranoia and insecurities hold me close

[Verse 1]
Lay me down to sleep with my casket closed
Nail it shut, make sure not to leave a thing exposed
I don't know, oh, I don't know
Blonde hair don't care, please don't leave me froze
Stuffed cigarillos and Percs keep me whole
"Should've shot it in the head" — words from my bro
But anything for romance, I'ma risk it all
Oh, oh

[Chorus]
Let's see if you a rider for real
I really wanna see if you a rider for real
Don't think just 'cause you grip the wheel
Makes you a straight up rider for real
I don't know, I don't know
If I should give you the key to my soul
I don't know, no, I don't know
My paranoia and insecurities hold me close

[Verse 2]
I'm codeine Cobain, I'ma pour a four
I don't do cocaine, but it's Perc in my nose
I suffer from excessive road-rage
Take my life and crash it into this ho
It don't matter, you can have my heart
Kill me faster, what's mine is yours
On a platter, I watched you grab that dagger
She's a stabber
But is she a rider?
Or is she poison, a viper?
She gets me high as supplier and I'm on fire
Will she be my firefighter?

[Chorus]
Let's see if you a rider for real
I really wanna see if you a rider for real
Don't think just 'cause you grip the wheel
Makes you a straight up rider for real
I don't know, I don't know
If I should give you the key to my soul
I don't know, no, I don't know
My paranoia and insecurities hold me close
