I'd never heard that before - Google makes it look like something American-sourced (which I suppose makes sense if it's in English).
Quite why Swedes would be fighting a Norwegian, outside the Danish capital, I didn't follow... but it surely indicates a past not empty of internecine strife <g>

A Norwegian girlfriend used to say that to me. I assure you, the rhyme goes a different way in Sweden. But it sounded so cute when she said it with that Norske accent. ;-)
