Time to lighten up: song lyrics and golf courses

[Peter Pallotta]

Michael D - The Summer Wind is a GREAT song. (I think I'll start a thread on why...)

Tom P - Stories like that remind me of Woody Allen's line: "In my next life, I want to come back as Warren Beatty's fingertips".

[John Kirk]

O ye'll tak' the high road and I'll tak the low road,
An' I'll be in Scotland afore ye;
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomon'.


Kenneth McKellar performs a nice version of the song.

[Tony_Muldoon]

I love OT threads.  Nice choices guys.

John Kirk the call was Time to lighten up.  One of the most misunderstood songs of all time?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bonnie_Banks_o'_Loch_Lomond 


Peter I'd love to see a thread on Summer Winds.   

[Colin Macqueen]

I know, I know its not Summer Winds or Summmertime but when the Muse come visiting I have to respond, even feebly!

Summer Winds
And the Golfin’ is breezy
Drives are pumpin’
And the rough is knee-high.

Ya think ya can pitch
But yer irons keep hookin’
A duff is no maybe
I hear you cry.

One of these mornings
Ya goin’ to rise up swinging
Open ya shoulders
And watch ya soarin’ drives fly

But until that mornin’
There’s a nothin’ to warn you
Yer mates in the foursome
Are just standin’ by

Summer Winds
And the Golfin’ is breezy
Drives are pumpin’
And the rough is knee-high.

And you think you are losing it Peter P.! Cheers Colin
