The Middle Earth Bragging Songwords and music by Marc Gunn
We're the Race of Men,Conquer valleys and glens.We build huge towers in the sky.We're strong and we're bold,Though it be hot or coldWe'll fight everyone till we die.Oh, we'll never give up the mountain,As long as hope remains.And you will never seeA race as old as we...
We're the race of DwarvesIn dark caverns we forgeAnd shape the ore that we mine.We're stout with beards,But give us a beer,And we'll drink to the gold that we find.Oh, we'll never give up the mountainAs long as there's money to be made.And you will never see,A race as old as we...
We're the race of ElvesIn forests we dwellAt one with earth and the sky.We're the race first bornAnd our only concernIs how close to our gardens you lie.Oh, we'll never give up the mountainAt least until our time is done.And you will never see,A race as old as we...
We're the race of Ents,And we're what was meantWhen they said there are shepherds to trees.We've been stuffy and slowSince our women left homeAnd many of us have fallen asleep.But we'll never give up the mountain.Our trees are there to defend.And you will never seeA race as old as trees...
I am Tom Bombadill.I can never stand still.There's too many Creatures to see.I've many songs to singAnd a wife in the streamSo whistle a diddle-diddle to call me.Oh, I'll never give up the mountain.Or say I'm the oldest alive.For you'll probably seeA hobbit climbing a tree...And it won't even matter diddle [whistle]And it won't even matter diddle [whistle]And it won't even matter diddle [whistle] ... how high!
