Perkele - 1621 lyrics

It was cold that day in January 1931 Working late, high over the ground in the harbour of Gothenburg The ground was frozen, the wind was cold and the snow was falling down A shout in the dark, the ground turned red - Another worker was dead Chorus: Honour to the workers who built our town And risked their lives since 1621 To the workers who built our town And risked their lives since 1621 For all that you have done ... since 1621 Chorus ... Honour to the workers who built our town ... And risked their lives since 1621 1621 - The year our town was born With a harbour of pride and mighty ships that made our town a name A history worth reminding of and tell your kids about When the people worked and risked their lives and gave us a place to love Chorus
