Lyrics
Det var en stormfuld nat
Langt væk fra Kattegat
Vi sad i et støveri
I en by nær ved Vestervig
Og det banked på vor dør
Vi syntes vi havde hørt den lyd før
Det var den færgemand
Den farlige færgemand
Det var den færgemand
Og han solgte færgevand
Og når man drak hans færgevand
Blev Danmark et dejligt land
Der var også mælk ombord
Og et postkort hjem til mor
Og så lidt mere færgevand
Fra den farlige færgemand
Det var en dejlig dag
Vi tog fra Rønbjerg af
Luften den var mild
Og «æ hugger» han var vild
En sofa stod på skibets dæk
Med moonshine der var læk
Og en færdig færgemand
Den farlige færgemand
Lyrics translation
It was a stormy night
Far away from Kattegat
We were sitting in a dustbin
In a town near Vestervig
And it knocked on our door
We thought we'd heard that sound before
It was that ferry man
The dangerous Ferry man
It was that ferry man
And he sold ferry water
And when you drank his ferry water
Did Denmark become a lovely country
There was also milk on board
And a postcard home for mom
And then a little more ferry water
From the dangerous Ferry man
It was a lovely day
We took off from Rønbjerg
The air it was mild
And "æ hugger" he was wild
A sofa stood on the deck of the ship
With moonshine there was a leak
And a finished Ferry man
The dangerous Ferry man
