| The Ranger (Sung to Kenny Rodgers' The Gambler) Sung by Frodo. On a cold winter evening As we sailed down Anduin I sat up with a Ranger We were both to wary to sleep So we took turns staring Through the trees into the darkness Till boredom overtook us And he began to speak He said, 'Son, I've made a life Out of wandering through the wild And knowing where the paths were And places I could hide So if you don't mind my saying I can see that you're exiled If you will take me with you I'll give you some advice' So I took him for his offer And I told him what my plans were Then he took his pipe And asked me for a light And the night got deathly quiet And his face lost all expression He said, 'If you're going to take the Ring boy You'll need to leave your friends one night.' You've got to know when to keep them Know when to leave them Know when to stay with them Know when to run Don't you end your journey Till you've thrown It in the Fire There'll be time then for reunions When your journey's done. Every Ranger knows That the secret to surviving Is knowing when to run away Knowing when to fight Cause every man's a winner Or every man's a loser And it really all depends on The company you keep And when he'd finished speaking He turned back towards the fire Put away his smoking pipe As I faded off to sleep And somewhere in the darkness The Ranger's words sank deeply And in those final words I knew I away must creep You've got to know when to keep them Know when to leave them Know when to stay with them Know when to run Don't you end your journey Till you've thrown It in the Fire There'll be time then for reunions When your journey's done. |
