The Lyrics
You'd think after D-Day, the liberation of Paris, the crushing of the Nazis, being the first commander of NATO, winning two landslide elections as President, ending the Korean War, keeping his party more or less moderate fo eight years, desegregating Little Rock Central High and preventing World War III, Dwight D. Eisenhower would be remembered for more than playing golf. Oh well, at least we've all forgotten "that woman," Kay Summersby.
Somewhere... beyond the tee
right there, hole number three
Ike makes a stand in trap of sand
and watches the ball that goes sailin'.
Somewhere... beyond the tee
he's there, feeling so free.
His ball will fly, his score's so high
and into the pond it goes sailin'.
A shock... in Little Rock
He beat Faubus, that goon.
I know, without a doubt
That U-2 plane's no weather balloon.
He warned... of the complex
military-industrial hex.
Happy he'll be beyond the tee
While young be the men that go sailin'.
(instrumental break)
I know, without a doubt
That U-2 plane's no weather balloon.
He warned, he warned of the complex
military-industrial hex.
Happy he'll be beyond the tee
While young be the men that go sailin'.
They'll go sailin'.
They'll go sailin'.
Ike's ball sailin'.
right there, hole number three
Ike makes a stand in trap of sand
and watches the ball that goes sailin'.
Somewhere... beyond the tee
he's there, feeling so free.
His ball will fly, his score's so high
and into the pond it goes sailin'.
A shock... in Little Rock
He beat Faubus, that goon.
I know, without a doubt
That U-2 plane's no weather balloon.
He warned... of the complex
military-industrial hex.
Happy he'll be beyond the tee
While young be the men that go sailin'.
(instrumental break)
I know, without a doubt
That U-2 plane's no weather balloon.
He warned, he warned of the complex
military-industrial hex.
Happy he'll be beyond the tee
While young be the men that go sailin'.
They'll go sailin'.
They'll go sailin'.
Ike's ball sailin'.
