Bedsitter Man as a Song Maker.

Although the editor of these pages does not consider Hatti Jahunen a singer at all, Hatti Jahunen makes "songs" . In fact, there seems to be no topic which Hatti Jahunen wouldn't be able to convert into a "song". The "lyrics" are always based on this very word and Hatti Jahunen always uses the same standard melody in his "songs".

As an example, I publish here the "Diesel Engine Song" by Hatti Jahunen. The lyrics were originally in Savonian dialect  (Savonian is a dialect of the Finnish language, as closely resembling Finnish as the Alabaman (U.S.) dialect resembles English). Later the song was translated into Swedish, too.
