Grand Hobbity Song
Late in the night, the forest is dark
A light up ahead by a tree
With songs in the air, both jolly and sad
The ellufs go west to the sea
But cherish the moment if yer come across them
Go sing with yer voice all night long
And the land we live in will ever be safe
If yer share with them ellufs a hobbity song
Craftsmen in blood, with shields on their back
Their boots thunder hard as they roam
With bushy old beards, and songs of their halls
The dwarves travel east fer their home
But cherish the moment if yer come across them
Go sing with yer voice all night long
And the land we live in will ever be safe
If yer share with them dwarves a hobbity song
Grey-clad and tall, with swords gleaming bright
They wander the world far and wide
So weary in heart, with thoughts of their past
The rangers look north with a sigh
But cherish the moment if yer come across them
Go sing with yer voice all night long
And the land we live in will ever be safe
If yer share with them menfolk a hobbity song
Back in the Shire, yer friends always near
Sit back and relax with yer meal
A knock on yer door, yer neighbours are here
Them picked up the scent of yer veal
But cherish the moment if them come a’knocking
And sing with yer voice all night long
For the land we live in will ever be safe
If yer share with yer neighbours a hobbity song
For the land we live in will ever be safe
If yer share with yer neighbours a hobbity song
