I Raise My Club

When I look down at my ball on the fairway,
When my foursome has driven off the tee;
This game of skill, it takes a dose of good sense;
This game of golf requires a strategy.

I raise my club, I'd better have a good plan;
I raise my club, of where I want to reach;
If I'm wrong, my ball will land in water;
Should I lay up or try to reach the green?

I raise my club, and try to judge the distance;
I raise my club, adjusting for the breeze;
If I'm wrong, my ball will land in water;
I raise my club, make sure to bend my knees.

I raise my club, I'm aiming at the lone pin;
I raise my club, I draw it back with ease;
If I'm wrong, my ball will land in water;
I raise my club, I'm going for the green.

I raise my club, and hope I don't hook left, man;
I raise my club, no slicing now for me;
My shot's gone, I quickly cross my fingers;
I hear "ker-plunk," a-diving I will be.
I hear "ker-plunk," a-diving I will be.
