The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins

[Verse 1] In the Middle of the Earth, in the land of Shire Lives a brave little hobbit whom we all admire With his long, wooden pipe Fuzzy, wooly toes He lives in a hobbit-hole and everybody knows him [Chorus] Bilbo (Bilbo!), Bilbo Baggins He's only three feet tall Bilbo (Bilbo!), Bilbo Baggins The bravest little hobbit of 'em all! [Verse 2] Now, hobbits are peace-loving folks, you know They're never in a hurry and they take things slow They don't like to travel away from home They just like to eat and be left alone! [Verse 3] But one day Bilbo was asked to go On a big adventure to the caves below To help some dwarves get back their gold That was stolen by a dragon in the days of old [Chorus] [Bridge] Well he fought with the goblins! He battled a troll! He riddled with Gollum! A magic ring he stole! He was chased by wolves! Lost in the forest! Escaped in a barrel from the elf-king's halls! [Chorus] Bilbo (Bilbo!), Bilbo Baggins The bravest little hobbit of 'em all! [Verse 4] Now he's back in his hole in the land of Shire That brave little hobbit whom we all admire Just a-sittin' on a treasure of silver and gold A-puffin' on his pipe in his hobbit-hole! [Chorus]
