To the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody, I give you "Barrowian Rhapsody".

Is this a real myth
is this just make believe
caught in a barrow
no escape from this rpg
Open your mind
just look to the Shire and see!

I'm just Sam Gamgee
I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
A little shy, a little slow,
Every way the smoke blows,
Doesn't really matter to me, to me

Gaffer, smoked my first pipe
Put old toby in the bowl
Lit the pipe now I can smoke
Gaffer, life has just begun
For now I've earned my place beside the bar
Barkeep, ooo
Please pour me a big drink
I will have drunk nine ales by now tomorrow
Carry me, carry me, my legs won't hold me steady

Ale cup, your time has come
Sends shivers to my head
A great subject for this thread
Good morrow my friends - I've got to go
I must take to bed and have some wild dreams
Gaffer, ooo - (anyway the smoke blows)
I don't want to leave
I sometimes wish the Green Dragon was my home

I see a little silhouetto of a drink
Pour it up, pour it up will you drink another ale cup
Thunderbolt and lightning - very very liking me
Green Dragon, Green Dragon,
Green Dragon, Green Dragon
Green Dragon Fill my cup - O let's have more!

But I'm a poor Gamgee and I've run out of money
He's just a Gamgee from a poor family
Spare him some coin for his troll sized appetite
Easy come easy go - let me have some coin
No fill up! No - we will not give you coin - give him coin
No fill up! We will not give you coin - give him coin
No fill up! We will not give you coin - give him coin
Will not give you coin - give him coin (never)
Never give you coin - give him coin
Never give him coin - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh Gaffer Gamgee, Gaffer Gamgee, Gaffer Gamgee give him coin
Fredegar Bolger has some coppers set aside for me
for me
for me

So you think you're so bold with that look in your eye
So you think you'll not help me and make me stay dry
Oh hobbits - can't do this to me hobbits
I'll have an ale - for I've got some coin, coin in my hand

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
A good ale always tastes great
Anyone should know
A good ale always tastes great - and goes just right with Old Toby

Every way the smoke blows...
