Them Bullroarer celbrations draw near, so we had us a historical field trip to Greenfields last night! We learned more about the battle there with them goblins over 270 years ago, and we ate a lot of sausages and drank a few ales. Here is one of the songs sung about the Bullroarer!
Best sung to the tune of Don Quixote by Gordon Lightfoot, this is an upbeat tune about that famous Took of old. Sing along everyone!
Don Quixote – Gordon LightfootBullroarer Took
Through the woodland, through the valley, comes a hobbit wild and free
Smiling at the lasses giggling, who can the brave young hobbit be
He is strong and he is sturdy, leaping over stone and brook
He is tall and he is handsome, he is named Bullroarer Took
Carrying a sturdy club, he rides a full-size horse into the fields
Son of Thain Isumbras Three, his shout is strong enough to make yer shake
Yer feel the Greenfields quake
Rumours say that war is coming, rumours say the wolves are near
Rumours tell of nasty goblins, bringing naught but senseless fear
He has come ter fight the goblins, he has come ter save us all
Let us gather on the fields, and let us heed his battle call
Find yer weapon in the shed and hug yer wife and children tight
See the northern hobbits muster, ready for a fearsome fight
Carrying a sturdy club, he rides a full-size horse into the fields
Son of Thain Isumbras Three, his shout is strong enough to make yer shake
Yer feel the Greenfields quake
See the fields all dark at night and listen ter the distant sound
Hear the ugly shrieks of war and feel the pounding in the ground
Wait until the misty morning, dire though the day may look
There is one who brings yer courage, he is named Bullroarer Took
See the goblins run toward yer, see the wolves with gaping jaws
Stand up straight beside yer kinsmen, fight the goblins without pause
Feel the tide of battle turning, victory is almost near
In the end yer chase yer foes and save the ones that yer hold dear
Carrying a sturdy club, he rode a full-size horse into the fields
Son of Thain Isumbras Three, his shout was strong enough to make yer shake
He rode his horse into the fray, he smashed his club into the goblin king
The songs that we will sing
For him we will sing
Through the woodland, through the valley, comes a hobbit wild and free
Smiling at the lasses giggling, who can the brave young hobbit be
He is strong and he is sturdy, leaping over stone and brook
He is tall and he is handsome, he is named Bullroarer Took
