May you get everything you need
And everything you want
And always make first downs
And never need to punt
May your after-touchdown kick-offs
Pin your opponents deep
And get away with penalties
With referees asleep
May you hit at least a triple
And frequently a homer
May you satisfy your wander-lust
And stroll the world, a roamer
But may your ship at voyage end
Sail safely into port
May you never need a lawyer
And never go to court
In short, my Bridget queen
May you star in every scene
And always out-shine other folk on stage
I'll whisper in your ear
These words of love to hear:
You're only looking BETTER as you age!
