LYRICS--Bridge Blues: Stay or Go
I’m giving up bridge – tonight’s my last night
It’s amen to Stayman, I give up the fight.
The insults and muddles are giving me troubles.
I can’t sleep at night for thinking of doubles.
My cards are all rotten
And I have forgotten
Who has played what and what is trump
Sitting for hours with a sore rump
So it’s all over tonight – I’m off to the backwoods
I’m bidding goodbye to Gerber and Blackwoods.
I can’t stand the hassle,
I can’t stand the pain
I’m getting those bad cards again and again.
Bridge makes me cheer, then tear out my hair,
One moment I’m soaring, the next in despair.
I swear I should quit — or give it one more go...
Tell me, Bridge friends, should I stay or should I go?
Another bad night
Nothing’s gone right.
My partner’s a dope
I’m losing all hope.
When opponents say “double”
I know we’re in trouble.
My points are not high,
and I’m wondering why
She kept on bidding right up to the sky.
We’re in seven spades,
I doubt she makes
When surprise, surprise,
all tricks she takes
The defenders feel sick
My partner’s really slick.
All of a sudden,
gone is my sorrow
And yes, I’ll play again tomorrow!
Bridge makes me cheer, then tear out my hair,
One moment I’m soaring, the next in despair.
I swear I should quit — or give it one more go...
Tell me, Bridge friends, should I stay or should I go?
