Graceland
200 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vit búgva í Graceland og hetta er ein deilig tíð
Vit eru vælsignað við guðs náði og vita væl hví
Vit hava lágt arbeiðisloysi, onki porno og fríska luft
Alt hetta tí vit eru lýðin og akta Gud

Graceland, Graceland

Og sjálvt bensinið er bíligari her
Og um vit skikka okkum ordiligt, so finna vit sikkurt olju
Vit hava nógvan fisk og tunlar og ókeypis vatn
Alt hetta tí vit eru lýðin og koma trygt í havn
