Ray Stevens Bridget The Midget (The Queen Of The Blues)

[unlegendary]

I ran across a site today about a local TV show when I was a kid, Clubhouse 22 then a reference to the Ray Stevens song Bridget the Midget and decided to find the lyrics and here they are.. I doubt any of you youngsters would remember this, but some of you oldies might.. It was great.

Without further ado, Bridget the Midget (The Queen of the Blues)

Well come on down to the go-go we're down on the strip
If you want to get hip to a brand new trip
They got a new soul singer she's really dynamite
Jam up, jelly tight, outta sight, alright, ow!

Well she may be small just two feet tall
But if you give her half a chance she'll pin you to the wall
She's a little showstopper you're gonna have a ball
She can sing she can dance she can really do it all yeah

And now ladies and gentlemen without further ado
It is indeed a great pleasure to introduce to you
Held over three weeks and gettin' rave reviews
Here's Bridget the Midget the Queen of the Blues
