Hoy, Hullo hobbits everywhere 

Have yer heard the news? 

It's time ter put yer elf-boots on 

And stomp on pesky shrews! 

It's time ter race yer ponies 

And get lost in the maze! 

Time ter wear a silly hat 

That's all the latest craze! 

For Spring is here! Yes Spring is here!

That's right (although it's late)

Spring is here! Aye! Spring is here!

And Summer's at the gate.

It's time ter gather flowers

For some lankyshanks in Bree

Time ter line the pies up

And polish 'em off with glee!

Time to confuse poor lost elves

Time to rescue chicks!

Time ter scold tween hobbits

Fer playing silly tricks.

For Spring is here! Yes Spring is here!

That's right (although it's late)

Spring is here! Aye! Spring is here!

And Summer's at the gate.

So get those toes a twinkling

And learn a step or two;

In Thorin's Hall, in Duillond

Them dancers wait fer you!

For Spring is here! Yes Spring is here!

That's right (although it's late)

Spring is here! Aye! Spring is here!

And Summer's at the gate!
