Long as I remember, the ring's been hangin' round
Clouds of mystery falling, confusion on the ground
Sauron through the ages tried to find the One
And I wonder, still I wonder,
Who'll bear the ring?
I went down to Rivendell, seeking shelter from the storm
Caught up in the council, I watched the towers grow
Sauron plans a new deal, wrapped in iron chains,
And I wonder, still I wonder,
Who'll bear the ring?
Heard the black speech spoken, Elrond cried, "No more!"
The council raged together, no one held the floor,
Still the ring kept calling, on and on in my ears,
And I wonder, still I wonder,
Who'll bear the ring?
Mount Doom Rising (Bad Moon Rising)
I see Mount Doom rising
I see Nazgul on the way
I see earthquakes and lightning
I see bad times today
Don't go out tonight, it's bound to take your life
There's Mount Doom on the rise.
I hear the horns of armies blowing
I know the end is coming soon
I fear the Black Gates overflowing
I hear the voice of raze and ruin
Don't go out tonight, it's bound to take your life
There's Mount Doom on the rise.
Hope you've got your ring together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
One Eye is taken for an eye
Well, don't go out tonight, it's bound to take your life
There's Mount Doom on the rise.
