The Bath Song - The Tolkien Ensemble

Written by：C. Reiff/Peter Hall

Sing hey for the bath at close of day

That washes the weary mud away

A loon is he that will not sing

O water hot is a noble thing

O sweet is the sound of falling rain

And the brook that leaps from hill to plain

But better then rain or rippling streams

Is water hot that smokes and steams

O water cold we may pour at need

Down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed

But better is beer if drink we lack

And water hot poured down the back

O water is fair that leaps on high

In a fountain white beneath the sky

But never did fountain sound so sweet

As splashing hot water with my feet
