[FRODO]
There's an inn of old renown
Where they brew a beer so brown
Moon came rolling down the hill
One Hevnsday night to drink his fill
[FRODO/MERRY]
On a three-stringed fiddle there
Played the Ostler's cat so fair
The hornèd Cow that night was seen
To dance a jig upon the green
Called by the fiddle to the
Middle of the muddle where the
Cow with a caper sent the
Small dog squealing
Moon in a fuddle went to
Huddle by the griddle but he
Slipped in a puddle and the
World went reeling
Downsides went up- hey!
Outsides went wide
As the fiddle
Played a twiddle
And the Moon slept till Sterrenday
Upsides went west- hey!
Broadsides went boom
With a twiddle on the fiddle
In the middle by the griddle
And the Moon slept till Sterrenday
[FRODO]
Dish from off the dresser pranced
Found a spoon and gaily danced
[PIPPIN]
Horses neighed and champed their bits
For the bloodshot Moon had lost his wits
[MERRY]
Well, cow jumped over, Dog barked wild
Moon lay prone and sweetly smiled
[SAM]
Ostler cried, "Play faster, Cat!
[ALL]
Because we all want to dance like that."
[FRODO/PIPPIN]
Gambol and totter till you're
Hotter than a hatter and you
Spin all akimbo
Like a windmill flailing
Whirl with a clatter till you
Scatter every cotter and the
Strings start a-pinging as the
World goes sailing
[ALL HOBBITS]
Downsides go up- hey!
Outsides go wide
You can clatter
With your platter
But the Moon slept till Sterrenday
Upsides go west- hey!
Broadsides go boom
With a batter and a clatter
You can shatter every platter
But the Moon slept till Sterrenday
