The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins

Words simply fail me. I watched this at least 10 times since one of the guys posted it on my Fantasy Football Message board.



And in case you want to sing along, here are the lyrics:


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 Baggins. Only 3 feet tall.
Bilbo. Bilbo Baggins. Bravest little hobbit of them all.

Now hobbits are peace lovin' 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 want to eat and be left alone.

But one day Bilbo was asked to go,
On a big adventure to the cave below.
To help some Dwarves get back their gold,
That was stolen by a dragon in the days of old.

Chorus

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 home.

Bilbo. Bilbo Baggins. Bravest little hobbit of them all.
Bilbo. Bilbo Baggins. Bravest little hobbit of them all.
