HOBBIT TOWN
(to the tune of "Guitar Town" by Steve Earle)

I'm Bilbo Baggins, life is simple for me
In the prettiest country this side of Bree
Sitting and smoking on my front lawn
With the teakettle bubbling and the seedcakes on

Nothing ever happens in Hobbit Town
And I'm always glad to just sit around
But Gandalf sent me some Dwarves one day
And they dragged me with them down the Greenway

Other Hobbits told me don't go too far
Outside the Shire very queer things are
Now I'm smoking Pipeweed in the Barrow-Downs
And wishing I was still in Hobbit Town

There's a trap in the pass near Goblin Town
They caught me and the Dwarves and dragged us down
I'm invisible thanks to this Ring I found
And now a precious Gollum follows me around

Hey mister Eagle, if I pinch it's not my fault
If I lose grip, I'm headed for a long fall
Starving in the middle of the Wood till I drop
Stabbing all the Attercops, run away and don't stop

Escape from the Wood-Elves when we can
Float in barrels down the river to the Lake-Men
Smaug the Dragon flew and was killed by Brand
On the mountain, five armies did make their stand

Thorin, here's the Arkenstone, hold it tight
As you join your fathers in that endless night
All of these adventures I'll be writing down
After Gandalf takes me back to Hobbit Town
