frustrating and humiliating experience.
My featured song "Golfing Is My Game" is a novelty song about a duffer who
discovers his fantasy alter-ego named "Parnold Allmer" while learning to play the
game of golf.
After I retired I took a part-time job mowing the rough at a local golf course so
that I could get free golfing privileges and finally learn to play the game well after
being a duffer my whole life. With all the free golf, a few lessons and hitting a lot
of practice balls at the driving range I still struggled to shoot in the low 90’s
consistently. Then I heard about the "Heard Super Swing" and after only two
buckets of balls at the driving range and a few 9-hole practice rounds of golf I
shot a four over par using this technique. Now it's not a crap-shoot everytime I
swing and for the first time in my life I feel like I own my swing. The promise of
the Heard Super Swing is that "you will hit more powerful shots and you will hit
them straighter.....a lot straiter."
plow-boy who dreams of the day he has enough money to live in style.
"Happiness For Sale" is a humorous song about suburban living while "Old
Gloomy River" is a parody about a poor delta share-cropper who loses his
farm in a flood and survives by climbing to the top of his windmill.
" I Come From Ol' Virginny" is a novelty sing-a-long folk song that our mother
taught us kids when we were toddlers and became a strong influence in my
songwriting style.
