Don't Go Drinking With Hobbits lyrics
Don't Go Drinking With Hobbits lyrics
Don't go drinking with hobbits.
Sure, you'll have a grand time all night long
But if you go drinking with hobbits, my friends
You may not want to wake up at all
They were thoughtful and kind when they invited me to drink
A lone human among hobbitkind
They bought me a half, then another and one more
And told stories of days long gone by
The brew was strong, my glass never empty
As if time stood still and bare
But when I awoke the next morning
I felt like Old Smaug had been there
Oh, don't go drinking with hobbits
Sure, you'll have a grand time all night long
But if you go drinking with hobbits, my friends
You may not want to wake up at all
You may wonder how it all happened
Well, I'm still wondering what happened, too
I had tea, dinner, and supper
Quite full, I thought I was through
But they insisted I come to the Flagon
And drink to the health of new friends
But when I got there, I made more hobbit friends
And the toasts seemed never to end
Oh, don't go drinking with hobbits
Sure, you'll have a grand time all night long
But if you go drinking with hobbits, my friends
You may not want to wake up at all
When the sun arose the next morning
And I lifted my head from my drool
There were beer mugs spilled on the tables
And hobbits lying next to their stools
A young hobbit lass grinned cross the barroom
And nudged each of my new hobbit friends
And then sometime after second breakfast
We all started drinking again
Oh, don't go drinking with hobbits
Sure, you'll have a grand time all night long
But if you go drinking with hobbits, my friends
You may not want to wake up at all
I left Hobbiton a few days later
My head it was swollen and sore
It felt like a dwarven anvil
After a terrible war
I don't think I'll ever recover
From the food, the drink, and the cheer
And I swear I'll never drink with hobbits again
At least tjll I see them next year
Oh, don't go drinking with hobbits
Sure, you'll have a grand time all night long
But if you go drinking with hobbits, my friends
You may not want to wake up at all
No, don't go drinking with hobbits
Sure, you'll have a grand time all night long
But if you go drinking with hobbits, my friends
You may not want to wake up at all
