Personally, it's been a tough month. I've attended three funerals and my family has experienced some serious health challenges. Professionally, everything is blooming. This song just came to me. I am so grateful for this gift of encouragement during a challenging time.

Don't Turn Around
If you could just
Step back
For a minute
You'd see that you're almost there.
If you could just
Stand over here
a little bit
You'd see that people care
If you could just
stop
crying
And look at what you've done
You'd realize
Oh you'd realize
You've already won
Hang in there honey
Don't let the pain get you down
You're so close to the miracle
No No No
Don't turn around
If you could fly around
Gain a broader look
You'd see that
It's right over there
If you could just
stand over here
a little bit
and get out of the glare
If you could just
stop
trying
and look at what you've done
You'd realize
Oh you'd realize
You're already done
Hang in there honey
Don't let the pain get you down
You're so close to the miracle
No No No
Don't turn around
Hang in there honey
Don't let the pain get you down
You're so close to the miracle
No No No
Don't turn aroundLabels: Blues Music, Encouragement, Miracle, Shannon Grissom, Song
Usually, you put your golf bag behind your seat on the cart. Half way through one round I switched seats with my partner but did not switch the position of the golf bag.
It wasn't long before I put my driver in the wrong bag.
As I searched for it I thought of lost loves and then I started laughing quietly to myself. (Those of you who know me know this can be challenging. My laugh is pretty robust.)
I wrote the song in the car on the way home.
Like Rocky and Bullwinkle, all of my songs are filled with innuendo. This was really just inspired by a golf club. Wait till you hear the one about cookies...

Cobra Blues Lyrics
Oooh I just saw my old blue
Cobra
In a new bag
The other day
I just saw my old blue cobra
In a new bag the other day
He was hangin round
With Big Bertha
Guess I’ll get in my cart
And ride away
Oh I tried picking up a 5
And swinging that old 6
Even grabbed my favorite rescue wood
But he had too many nicks
Oh
I just saw my cobra
In a new bag
The other day
I just saw my cobra
In a new bag the other day
He was hangin round
With big Bertha
Guess I’ll
Get my cart and ride away
Oh I just saw my old blue cobraLabels: Blues Music, Cobra, Golf, Shannon Grissom
