Diggi loo diggi ley, alla tittar på mig, där jag går i mina gyllene skor. Jag dansade omkring på gatan, och hela världen den log. Diggi loo diggi ley, himlen öppnade sig. Det är knappt man sina ögon tror. Åh, jag börjar nästan sväva i mina gyllene skor. (Diggi loo diggi ley, everyone looks at me, [there] where I walk in my golden shoes. I danced around in the street, and the whole world [it] smiled. Diggi loo diggi ley, the heavens [sky / heaven] opened [assuming a biblical reference]. You can hardly believe your eyes. Oh, I almost start to soar [or float – hover in or glide through the air] in my golden shoes.) [1984, “Diggi loo diggi ley”, Britt Lindeborg (lyrics), Torgny Söderberg (music)performed by Herreys:]
