As The Bridge Team Goes Ruffing Along

Written by: Anonymous

Source: Mad Magazine, 1950s, sung to the tune of the Marine's Anthem

Other verses are unknown.

Bid a Heart, bid a Spade, bid a game that can't be made,

As the bridge team goes ruffing along.

Lose a slam by a trick, see your partner getting sick,

As the bridge team goes ruffing along.

 

So it's hi-hi-hee, we've got vulnerability.

Shout out "Three No Trump" loud and clear!

(two-three)

We will set the pace, as we trump our partner's Ace,

As the bridge team goes ruffing along.
