Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
.
Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Sat next to his new wife
Unsure what he should do
To begin their brand new life
.
Well Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Kissed Rosie's sweet soft cheek
And from that moment forward
Vowed never to be weak
.
Then just a few months later
Before mallorn flowers began to rise
Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Was met with a surprise
.
About a nine month later
That little surprise was born
And Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Held his first child, Elanor
.
September came too soon then
He stood at the sea's edge
And Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Said goodbye to his best friend
.
Many happy years went by
And many children came
And Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Wore the star of Dúnedain
.
Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
For many of those years
Served as mayor of the Shire
Forgetting his old fears
.
Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Even rode to the White City
And spent a peaceful year there
With Elanor and his sweet Rosie
.
Then Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Watch with his loving wife
As their children grew and married
Beginning their own new lives
.
Sixty-two short years had past
Since the beginning of their quest
And Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Laid his sweet Rosie down to rest
.
Now Poor Old Samwise Gamgee
Knew it was his turn to sail away
To rejoin with the Ringbearers
And there spend his final days
