The Lagos Bridge Blues

I woke up one morning   *

Sun was in the sky    *

Who wants to go sailing

I do said I

 

I’m singing the Lagos Bridge Blues

 

Lets make a little Magic  *

Lets go to sea  *

Lets play with the dolphins

And just be free

 

We were a little hungry  *

We packed the fridge   *

We heard  voices calling

Lets take it to the bridge

 

I’m singing the Lagos Bridge Blues

 

Called Channel 9   *

Please open the door  *

3 minutes only

Why was it 10 more?

 

The river was running  *

The gulls in the Sky   *

The bridge wouldn’t open

Why oh why

 

I’m singing the Lagos Bridge Blues

 

The barnicals crunching   *

Our rigging was bashed    *

Oh holy shit

I think we just crashed

 

 

Now we’re staying here  *

Our boats on the yard   *

And now we find out

why it is called the hard

 

I’m singing the Lagos Bridge Blues

 

So we’ll see you round  *

Cause we’ll still be here  *

In fact we may be here

For another year

 

We’re singing the Lagos Bridge Blues

 

Yeah

Channel 9

 

When you see a * you just go " Da da da da da"  blues style  music version live below

this song was written following an accident with a brige in our new mobile home (our yacht magic - we are pretty sad as we had just set off on an adventure of a lifetime and now we have to wait for 10 weeks)
