Golf Girl
Caravan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dressed in P.V.C.
I chanced upon a golf girl
Selling cups of tea
She asked me did I want one
Asked me with a grin
For three pence you can buy one
Full right to the brim
So of course I had to have one
In fact I ordered three
So I could watch the golf girl
Could see she fancied me
And later on the golf course
After drinking tea
It started raining golf balls
And she protected me
Her name was Pat
And we sat under a tree
She kissed me
We go for walks
In fine weather
All together
On the golf course
We talk in Morse
The lyrics of the song "Golf Girl" by Caravan are about a man who is standing on a golf course and comes across a girl who is selling cups of tea. He is immediately attracted to her and orders three cups of tea so he can watch her. Soon after, it starts raining golf balls and the girl, whose name is revealed to be Pat, protects him. The two of them start talking and getting to know each other under a tree, and they go for walks together in fine weather. The last line of the song is in Morse code, which adds an interesting layer of complexity to the lyrics.
Overall, "Golf Girl" is a sweet and playful song about an unexpected romance that blossoms on a golf course. The lyrics are full of vivid imagery, from the description of the girl's PVC outfit to the golf balls falling from the sky. The use of Morse code is also a clever touch that adds to the overall feeling of mystery and intrigue.
