The song is a well-known dansband song, usually performed as a duet between a male and a female singer where the male sings the verses, the female the refrains. In the verses, the male complains over the female sometimes ignoring him, and the female asks if the male has forgotten how he used to charm her, and would even be prepared to fight for her when they were younger.
