A Thousand Pies

Once I saw a boy, such a joy
His eyes burnt so bright

But he liked adventuring
Like no hobbit never does, never does
He went away

But I need him
And I miss him
And now I wonder...

If I could bake
All those pies
Do you think he'd change his mind?
'Cause I would give him a thousand pies
If that could just bring him...
Home

Sometimes lads lose their minds
They go so wild
Oh that darn Tookish side!

Why they just can't stay
Let their hair turn gray
Resting in the lap of a pie seller girl?

And I need him
And I miss him
And now I wonder...

If I could bake
All those pies
Do you think he'd change his mind?
'Cause I would give him a thousand pies
If that could just bring him...
Home

Home, home
If I could bring him home
With pies, pies

If I could lure him
With pies, pies
Bring him back
Would it work?

Distance can strengthen love
But it makes one sore
So cold to sleep alone

That boy is a fool
Likes adventuring too
It's so, just so dangerous

But I still need him
And I still miss him
And now I wonder....

If I could bake
All those pies
Do you think he'd change his mind?
'Cause I would give him a thousand pies
If that could just bring him...

If I would bake
All those pies
I am sure he'd change his mind!
When a lad gets a thousand pies
That will bring him...
Or at least lure him...
Home


About the song

Here is one of my first tunes where pies and love are combined into a sweet mixture. It is best sung to a similar tune about Thousand Miles. Here you can see me perform the tune in me burrow.
