Hobbital Things To Do
It's a hobbital thing to do! It's a hobbital thing to do!
So many things we share in our Shire, green and fair
It's a hobbital thing to do!
To-o lie in the grass and to watch the clouds pass
while the sun shines high up in the blue
To smoke a pipe of Toby weed while wearing a comfy vest of tweed
to blow a smoke ring or two
To take pride in hospitality with next to no formality
while using our very best dishes
To make everyone feel welcome 'specially when you're feeling down and glum
we'll give you our very best wishes!
It's a hobbital thing to do! It's a hobbital thing to do!
So many things we share in our Shire, green and fair
It's a hobbital thing to do!
To-o fish from a pool sitting in a comfy stool
shaded by a clump of feathery fern
To give a mathom gift to a friend who's gotten miffed
but still gives you presents in return
To-o raise a grand toast with a powerful boast
because someone caught a really big fish!
To stew, cook and bake jelly, pie and honeycake
and a very tasty catfish dish
It's a hobbital thing to do! It's a hobbital thing to do!
So many things we share in our Shire, green and fair
It's a hobbital thing to do!
To know who your granddad's father is and the uncle of your auntie Liz
and the rest of your grand family tree
To live cosy in a burrow and to sow a well-ploughed furrow
Go to Hobbiton on a shopping spree
To go swimming in the Water, be you hobbit son or daughter
when the summer is at its grand height
To party at the Tree, there's so many things to see
you won't make it home 'til after midnight
It's a hobbital thing to do! It's a hobbital thing to do!
So many things we share in our Shire, green and fair
It's a hobbital thing to do!
To-o play the harp and lute until Barmy shows his boot
'fore he sends us all off with a grin
To let off fireworks; something a hobbit never shirks
at the lovely Green Dragon Inn
To-o tell a roaring tale and to swallow good brown ale
'til our tummies are all round and tight
To sing our hobbit songs knowing nothing's ever wrong
for our fires they are burning bright
It's a hobbital thing to do! It's a hobbital thing to do!
So many things we share in our Shire, green and fair
It's a hobbital thing to do!
