To the Tune of I Got You Babe by Sonny and Cher. Duet for Sam and Frodo
Gandalf says we’ve got to go
and leave the Shire the Ring we’ll stow
Sam:
Well I don’t know if we really should
But by your side, I’ll face both bad and good
But hey,
Both:
I got you Sam/Sir
I got you Sam/Sir
Frodo:
They say the way is fraught with woe
it matters not the path we go
Sam:
Yet if you say we have a chance
I can’t says I’d give it a second glance
Cause hey
Both:
I got you Sam/Sir
I got you Sam/Sir
Sam:
I’d plant flowers in the spring
I’ll follow you, destroying the Ring
Frodo:
If I get hurt, you’ll bear me along
And if I am weak, then you’re always strong.
So don’t let them say you’re just a drudge
Your deep devotion they will never budge
Sam:
Then tell me master, what I should do
And whatever you ask of me I’ll see it through
Hey
Both:
I got you Sam/Sir
I got you Sam/Sir
Frodo: I got you to leave your home
Sam: I’d follow you where e’re you roam
Frodo: I got you to fight for me
Sam: I reckon that seems right to me
Frodo: Now it’s gone you tend me so
Sam: I got you, I won’t let go
Frodo: You’re by my side where I can see
Sam: And that’s just where I’ll always be.
Both:
I got you Sam/Sir
I got you Sam/Sir
I got you Sam/Sir
I got you Sam/Sir
I got you Sam/Sir
