Här Kommer Pippi Långstrump
Astrid Lindgren
Here Comes Pippi Longstocking
Here it’s all fun and games,
come take a look at this girl.
Can you guess, can you guess,
can you guess who I am?
Do you want to know
what a girl like me can be called?
Forget about asking
'cause I’ll tell you how it is.
Here comes Pippi Longstocking,
tra-la-la, tra-la-hey, tra-la-hooray!
Here comes Pippi Longstocking,
yep, here I really am.
Have you seen my monkey,
my sweet little monkey?
Have you seen Mr. Nilsson,
yep, that’s really his name.
Have you seen my house,
my Villa Villekulla house?
Do you want to know
why it’s called that way?
Well, 'cause that’s where Pippi Longstocking lives,
tra-la-la, tra-la-hey, tra-la-hooray!
That’s where Pippi Longstocking lives,
yep, that’s where I really am.
It’s not too shabby,
I’ve got a monkey, a horse, and a house,
a suitcase full of money
is also nice to have.
Come on now, all my friends,
everyone I know,
let’s go have some fun,
tra-la-hey, tra-la-hooray!
Here comes Pippi Longstocking,
tra-la-la, tra-la-hey, tra-la-hooray!
Here comes Pippi Longstocking,
yep, here I really am.
