God created the woman when he was in a good mood
The most beautiful grew up in Falsterbo, Skanör
Then it's also about up North in the land of Vikings
Who are now laying down, sunbathing on every summer beach
Wherever in our kingdom you are
You'll take note of that sort of beautiful girl
Yeah, from north to south, I promise and swear
She makes life worth living and you'll fall in love
Swedish girls, Swedish girls, everywhere I look (Swedish girls)
Swedish girls, Swedish girls, everywhere I look, more and more (Swedish girls)
On a Gotland beach you might see them swim by
In Gothenburg by the avenue you can hear their voices
If you find yourself in our royal capital
You'll be met with a thousand smiles while you go for a walk
Swedish girls, Swedish girls, everywhere I look (Swedish girls)
Swedish girls, Swedish girls, everywhere I look, only more and more (Swedish girls)
It's thanks to girls, that the hearts of boys pound
It's scientifically proven we feel better with them around
It's got nothing to with anything else but you
That our native girl brings every man to his knees
