Fellowship of the Ring
In FotR, we hear Gandalf singing the first part of the song The Road Goes Ever On, which is also in the books.
The road goes ever on and on down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the road must go, and I must follow if I can.
The next song we hear is the drinking song the hobbits sing at The Green Dragon pub, and Pippin sings the last line. The lyrics were mainly taken from different lines of three songs found in the book. The song as sung in the movie:
Hey, ho, to the bottle I go to heal my heart and drown my woe! Rain may fall, and wind may blow, but there still be many miles to go. Sweet is the sound of the pouring rain and the stream that falls from hill to plain! But better than rain or rippling brook Is a mug of beer inside this Took!

I got these words from the RotK script over at Council of Elrond. It's the song Merry and Pippin sing while standing on a table in Edoras.
Oh you can search far and wide, You can drink the whole town dry, But you'll never find a beer so brown, As the one we drink in our hometown. You can keep your fancy ales, You can drink them by the flagon, But the only brew for the brave and true, Comes from the Green Dragon

I was watching the extras on the TT EE, and did you know that the theme song for Arwen, the one that plays during Aragorn's flash back-well, it's lyrics are actually what she says to him. So it's something along the lines of "U i vethed, na i onnad..."
