I left my home in Hobbiton with Merry, Sam and Peregrin,
To take my uncle's ring off to the wise and ancient elven kin,
And Gandalf said to meet him at the Prancing Pony inn for tea
But barkeep Butterbur from Gandalf hadn't heard a peep;

So Strider said he'd take us off to Elrond's pad in Rivendell,
And Nazgul came and chased us 'till we reached the ford at Bruinen
Then Arwen made them beggar off with spells that were quite mystical
(The Nazgul were surprised, and that we found oh so hysterical)

The Nazgul were surprised, and that we found oh so hysterical
The Nazgul were surprised, and that we found oh so hysterical
The Nazgul were surprised, and that we found oh so hyster-ysterical

Old Elrond said he'd send us off to Mordor (what a great surprise)
And that we'd do him proud if we could keep our heads and stay alive
We ventured forth with Aragorn and Gandalf, oh and Boromir
A little guy called Gimli and a lanky bloke with pointy ears

The pass of Caradhras was far too cold, it wouldn't do for me
So down into the dwarven mines we went, but then we couldn't see
Oh, Gandalf found a way out, but the doorway it was blocked because
A balrog lost his nut and then it tried to do away with us

"You shall not pass" was Gandalf's cry, but that was not enough it seems
The balrog pulled him down into the deep and dark and cold ravine
So we escaped and headed for the forest of the elven Queen
She tried to send us packing as the dwarf, she thought was quite obscene

She tried to send us packing as the dwarf, she thought was quite obscene
She tried to send us packing as the dwarf, she thought was quite obscene
She tried to send us packing as the dwarf, she thought, she thought was quite obscene

We then set off for Rauros with our flashy capes and lembas bread
Galadriel, it seems, is now stuck firmly in poor Gimli's head
And Boromir is getting rather creepy and obsessive
But he's wasting all his efforts, as the Ring to him I will not give

And Boromir is getting rather creepy and obsessive

When I sat high in Amon-Hen, the Ring it spoke to me again
I put it on and Sauron's eye looked up, and my hair stood on end
I realised I'd screwed things up, so thought I'd better disappear
I headed for the river but Sting sensed somebody drawing near

The Uruk-hai attacked us, Saruman had sent them after me
With all of this commotion, I decided I had better flee
And Samwise said "don't be a fool, the way ahead is hard, you see"
And so I said "OK, I cannot do this without you, Gamgee"

And so I said "OK, I cannot do this without you, Gamgee"
And so I said "OK, I cannot do this without you, Gamgee"
And so I said "OK, I cannot do this without you, my Sam Gamgee"

Although we are just hobbits, we're quite plucky and adventury
In fighting orcs and Uruk-hai, we're gaining quite a mastery
And in his meals of vegetable, animal and mineral
Sam shows the very makings of a master chef from Overhill
