Masters Music in November
I have had the good fortune to attend the Masters twice. ⛳️ The first time in 1992 when I was playing on the mini-tour. And again in 2002 with my husband and clients. What an incredible experience and a special place. Maybe I'll make it back there again in 2022! ⛳️
Dave Loggins wrote the original score for CBS's coverage of the Masters in 1981. It was re-released by Leeds Music/Patchwork Music ASCAP in 1996 by Don Cherry. The name of the work is "Augusta." Loggins changed a line in the lyrics in 2001 in honor of Tiger Woods.
Augusta
Well, it's springtime in the valley on Magnolia Lane
It's the Augusta National and the master of the game
Who'll wear that green coat on Sunday afternoon
Who'll walk that eighteenth fairway singing this tune
Augusta... your dogwoods and pines
They play on my mind like a song
Augusta... it's you that I love
And it's you that I'll miss when I'm gone.
It's Watson, Byron Nelson, Demaret, Player and Snead
It's Amen Corner and it's Hogan's perfect swing
It's Sarazen's double eagle at the fifteenth in Thirty-Five
And the spirit of a Tiger that keeps it alive
Augusta... your dogwoods and pines
They play on my mind like a song
Augusta... it's you that I love
And it's you that I'll miss when I'm gone.
It's the legions of Arnie's army and the Golden Bear's throngs
And the wooden-shafted legend of Bobby Jones
