Here's an upbeat number about a new love. All the tracks (except vocals) are from Band-in-a-Box. I mix in Reaper with their built-in EQ and Reverb.

I hope you enjoy it.

(BIAB info below, after the lyrics)

Well, I got a new girl and I'm happy that she's mine,
But she takes all my money and she takes all my time,
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F; her name is Golf
She came from Scotland to Augusta,
but we met in Pebble Beach
Her name is Golf.

I took her to the ocean,
I took her by the hand,
But she stays out of the water
And she doesn't like the sand,
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F; her name is Golf
When I ask her for three kisses,
She always yells out "fore!"
Her name is Golf.

Chorus 1:
She gets up with grandpa at the sunrise,
And lunches at the club with my aunts,
She wears a different visor, every day,
And very very brightly colored
brightly colored pants!

(sax solo)

Her eyes are scenic hazards, her smile is like the sun,
She bought those funky shoes, and got a hole in one!
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F; her name is Golf,
She's got lots and lots of dimples
And she shows them when she drives
Her name is Golf.

Chorus 2:
I spend a lot of cash on my honey,
I spend a lot of money on romance,
I buy gadgets and gizmos and equipment,
And very very brightly colored
brightly colored pants!

She's pretty damn expensive, but she's the one I love,
She rocks her polo shirts and only wears one glove,
Her name is Golf, G-O-L-F, her name is Golf
She's a player and a swinger,
and I think she likes to hook,
Her name is Golf --
You know, the more I score, the worse I feel
Her name is Golf.

hahahaha. This is hilarious, Sam. Man, I gotta send this to some of my friends. "You know, the more I score, the worse I feel
Her name is Golf." Great lyrics, and the perfect melody for this. The sax solo us definitely the right choice.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Fun stuff.
You do need to treat the sibilant stuff in your vocal though. Maybe pull the bvox back a little too.
There're a few easy trick to avoid the heavy essing - sip water as you sing, use a poop screen and sing passed the microphone.


Cheers

Very interesting relation with Golf, Buttrey!
You made a funny song with this one.
And I agree with the advise Ray gave.

Now that made me laugh. One of the best typos ever!

{edit} sorry, the devil made me type that.

When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"

This is very funny. This is so good that I sent the link out to all of my golfing friends.

This is a super song.
