Wolves of Middle Earth

I saw some wolves on the road to Archet

Better not get too near

Looking for some poor traveler to eat, I bet

And wash him down with a beer


Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-hoo

Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-ho


You hear them howling around near Weathertop

And on the road to the Forgotten Inn
Little hobbit got stabbed up there couple nights ago

Stay on the road, or just stay in.

Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-hoo

Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-ho


Bloody of claw and tooth

last seen in Ost Guruth

or down around the icy Redhorn Pass

Better give them the slip, 

They'll rip your lungs out, Pip

At best, a nasty bite right in the ass


Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-hoo

Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-ho


I saw Mangemaw prowling up at Blackwold's Roost

He's a wolf of Middle Earth

I saw lots of Mangemaw Juniors prowling up at Blackwold's Roost

They're wolves of Middle Earth

I saw a wolf drinking a beer in someone's meadhall

And the taxidermy was perfect.

  

Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-hoo

Ah-hoo wolves of Middle Earth, Ah-ho




Alternate Verse:

They do the chickens harm

Out at Dora Brownlock's farm

They gather anywhere there is a ruin

The towns aren't even free, 

They breed them outside Bree

And everywhere you go in Ered Luin.

Rivers run into the western sun Ships grow small and fade you're on my mind Restless hearts sleep alone tonight Sending all my love Into...
