Story Behind the Song
Wonder who The Divots are? Picture this: alternative rocker goes to the country club--The Golf Punk. This is what The Divots are about, and it was one of the first Divots songs written.
Lyrics
copyright 1998 The Divots
Guy showed up to play with a faded flannel shirt
And shorts so big, they looked just like a skirt
You know the style the older female members wear
Fashion and appeal, he didn't seem to care
...seem to care...
The kid fits the bill, of the golf punk
Can drive the ball a ton, yeah he's a golf punk
Has a piece of junk bag and one metal wood
On a first glance basis, you'd think he wasn't very good
Fundamentals are superb, from mechanics to his swing
When he rips a drawing drive, you can almost feel the sting
...feel the sting...
Members think he's odd, he's a golf punk
He wears a worn and torn hat, he's a golf punk
Putts the ball like a demon, he's a golf punk
Defines the essence of the game, he's a golf punk
Hits any kind of ball, he has no special brand
He's deadly with a wedge, has a really steady hand
His style ain't pretty, but it gets the job done
Treats every round the same and always has some fun
...has some fun...
The kid fits the bill, of the golf punk
Can drive the ball a ton, golf punk
He doesn't wear spikes, he's worn work boots to golf
He plays because he loves the game, he's a golf punk
he's a golf punk...
he's a golf punk...
