His name was Frodo, he was a Hobbit With brave Samwise at his side, and his blue eyes big and wide So they left Bag End at Gandalf’s bidding And when they tried to flee the Shire They found themselves in danger dire With two of Frodo's kin, Merry and Peregrin They made their way to Bree, where they met Strider at the inn Mr. Frodo, hey Frodo Baggins To Mordor the Ring you’ll be draggin’ Mr. Frodo, hey Frodo Baggins Get to Mount Doom ‘fore the Ring spreads its gloom Hey Mr Frodo….don’t lose your nerve Well, you’ll have Gimli, the son of Gloin Of Elves he isn’t fond as they kept his dad in bonds The son of Thranduil, Legolas Greenleaf Will be along to help the quest, with a bow he is the best From Gondor, Boromir, who holds his land so dear Add Gandalf to the group and there’s nothing you should fear Cept maybe Frodo, hey Frodo Baggins To Mordor the Ring you’ll be draggin’ Mr. Frodo, hey Frodo Baggins Get to Mount Doom ‘fore the Ring spreads its gloom Hey Mr Frodo….don’t put it on So you’ve set off upon your journey Far away from hearth and bed and hard endless miles ahead Roads fraught with danger, but you’ve a Ranger He’ll help lead you safe and sound into Mordor’s blackened grounds It seems so small a thing, you must destroy that Ring Then on to Minas Tirith where they’ll make ol’ Strider King Be careful Frodo, hey Frodo Baggins To Mordor the Ring you’ll be draggin’ Mr. Frodo, hey Frodo Baggins Get to Mount Doom ‘fore the Ring spreads its gloom Hey Mr Frodo….beware the Ring .
