A song for Frodo

WITHOUT A SONG
Frank Sinatra

Without a song the day would never end.
Without a song the road would never bend.
When things go wrong a man ain't got a friend
Without a song.

That field of corn would never see a plow.
That field of corn would be deserted now.
A man is born but he's no good no how
Without a song.

I got my trouble and woe but, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll,
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul.

I'll never know what makes the rain to fall.
I'll never know what makes that grass so tall.
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song.

I've-a got my trouble and woe and, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll,
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul.

I'll-a never know what makes that rain to fall.
I'll never know what makes the grass so tall.
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song.

Nice tribute. I left a message on his blog.

Frodo will read "Oh Shenandoah" as Bilbo goes home.
