Hobbiton (Gary Owen, Union)
This is mostly about the adventures of Merry and Pippin, both before the War of the Ring, and the Scouring in the Shire.
Let Bagginses' sons be not dismayed
But join with me every re-jovial blade
Come booze and sing and lend your aid
To help me with the chorus
Instead of wine we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail
No one for that shall go to jail
From Hobbiton to the Westmarch
We are hobbits who take delight in
Raiding the farms by day and night and
Through the street like wargs a-running
As the dogs chase us. (1)
.
Instead of wine we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail
No one for that shall go to jail
From Hobbiton to the Westmarch
.
We'll break the windows, we'll break the doors
The orcs knock down by threes and fours
Then shoot the ruffians who started wars
And tinker with our weapons
.
Instead of wine we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail
No one for that shall go to jail
From Hobbiton to the Westmarch
.
We'll beat the bailiffs out of fun
We'll make old Sharkey and sheriffs run
We are the boys no man dares dun
If his own skin he values
.
Instead of wine we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail
No one for that shall go to jail
From Hobbiton to the Westmarch
.
Our hearts so stout have got us fame
For soon 'tis known from whence we came
Where'er we go they welcome the name
Of Merry and Pippin in glory
.
Instead of wine we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail
No one for that shall go to jail
From Hobbiton to the Westmarch
The Ruffians are tall and straight
And kill any who contemplate
They'll shoot a bow of any weight
From Hobbiton to the Westmarch.
.
Instead of wine we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail
No one for that shall go to jail
From Hobbiton to the Westmarch
The Shire has been wracked and torn
Since Sarumon revenge had sworn
Though he lays still upon the corn
In spite of Frodo and Samwise.
Please review and feel free to suggest!
