The Ballad Of Bilbo Baggins

Leonard Nimoy

In the middle of the earth in the land of the Shire

lives a brave little hobbit whom we all admire.

With his long wooden pipe,

fuzzy, woolly toes,

he lives in a hobbit-hole and everybody knows him



Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins

He's only three feet tall

Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins

The bravest little hobbit of them all



Now hobbits are a peace-lovin' folks you know

They don't like to hurry and they take things slow

They don't like to travel away from home

They just want to eat and be left alone

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.



Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins

He's only three feet tall

Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins

The bravest little hobbit of them all



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!!!!!!!



Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins

The bravest little hobbit of them all



Now he's back in his hole in the land of the 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.



Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins

He's only three feet tall

Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins

The bravest little hobbit of them all
