Ho! Ho! Ho! to the bottle I go
To heal my heart and drown my woe.
Rain my fall and wind may blow,
And many miles be still to go,
But under a tall tree I will lie,
And let the clouds go sailing by.
A Drinking Song sung by the hobbits as they rest on their way to Buckland, The Fellowship of the Ring Book 1, Chapter ‘A Short Cut to Mushrooms’.
