Lyrics
I still remember that summer day
I was caddying at the country club
Got paired up with this old man
Who loved telling stories
He said, “Life is just like a round of golf”
You choose your club
You take your shot
You just might end up on top
Or it can bring you to your knees”

When I said tell me about when you were young
Let’s just say the good lord didn’t tie his tongue

He said I took a lotta wild swings
Aiming at some things
That don’t mean a thing to me these days
I ended up, in the rough
More times than I shoulda
Sometimes I played it way too safe
Now that I’ve left those first nine holes behind
I’m just trying to play better on the back nine

I took pride in being a workhorse
Thought making money was what mattered most
When it came to my kids
I fell down on the job
Trying to catch lightning in a bottle
My best years
I messed ‘em up
I could blame it on the booze or drugs
I could say that I was robbed

Truth is it all adds up and the bill comes due
Thinking you’re indestructible catches up with you

I took a lotta wild swings
Aiming at some things
That don’t mean a thing to me these days
I ended up, in the rough
More times than I shoulda
Sometimes I played it way too safe
Now that I’ve left those first nine holes behind
I’m just trying to play better on the back nine

He birdied the eighteen hole, and he shook my hand
That day I learned a lot from that old man
When he said…

I took a lotta wild swings
Aiming at some things
That don’t mean a thing to me these days
Now that I’ve left those first nine holes behind
I’m just trying to play better on the back nine
On the back nine
