== Lyrics ==
In the middle of the earth in the land of the Shire lives a brave little hobbit whom we all admire. With his long wooden pipe, fuzzy, woolly toes, he lives in a hobbit-hole and everybody knows him 
Bilbo (Bilbo) Bilbo Baggins He's only three feet tall Bilbo (Bilbo)Bilbo Baggins The bravest little hobbit of them all 
Now hobbits are peace-lovin' folks you know They don't like to 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 caves below, to help some Dwarves get back their gold that was stolen by a dragon in the days of old. 
Bilbo (Bilbo) Bilbo Baggins He's only three feet tall Bilbo (Bilbo) Bilbo Baggins The bravest little hobbit of them all 
Well, he fought with the goblinsHe 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 halls!!!!!!! 
Bilbo (Bilbo) Bilbo Baggins The bravest little hobbit of them all 
Now he's back in his home in the land of the Shire, that brave little hobbit whom we all admire, just sittin' on a treasure of silver and gold puffin' on his pipe in his hobbit-hole. 
Bilbo (Bilbo) Bilbo Baggins He's only three feet tall Bilbo (Bilbo) Bilbo Baggins The bravest little hobbit of them all
