Cledus T. Judd & Wix Wichmann collaborate on “Tiger by the Tail (The Tale of Tiger Woods)”

Tiger Woods is getting the Cledus T. Judd treatment. Using Tiger by the Tail, recorded by Buck Owens in 1965, as the reference point, Tiger by the Tail (The Tale of Tiger Woods), was written by Judd with Nashville-based stand-up comic Wix Wichmann, and Phillip White. Judd recorded the song less than a week ago and is already getting spins on major radio stations in Chicago (WUSN-FM), Tampa (WQYK-FM), and Knoxville (WIVK-FM) and is available for download on iTunes and Amazon.com. The song can also be heard up on www.cledustjudd.net.

“What got my attention first off on this story was Tiger is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and he’s messing around with a gal who works for Perkins. With his kind of money, I’d at leasat gone for somebody a little classier … like a 3rd shift manager at IHOP,” said Judd.

Song lyrics are:

Well, she beat Tiger all to hell, it’s plain to see,
hit him in his golf balls from the black and blue tees
She was teed off from a tough lie, he tried to tell
And looks like she beat Tiger all to hell

Well, he thought he’d cheat on her and she’d stand by her man,
She knocked out his window with his three iron in her hand
He got up and down in a skins game with a cheap Jezebel..
And that’s why she beat Tiger all to hell

Well, she beat Tiger all to hell, it’s plain to see,
Looks like he’s had a hole in one or two or three,
He should have never pulled out his wood, yeah, he should have kept it to himself,
That’s why she beat Tiger all to hell

Wix Wichmann in FameCast Competition


In a search for the nation’s best new talent, FameCast has launched an online competition – an artist discovery and entertainment community platform. Artists can connect with a national audience and compete to become the next FameCast Fenom, a prize worth $10,000 and national exposure. Season One is in full swing and Nashville’s own Wix Wichmann is in the final 10 comics.
Wix says..

Ok everyone I’m getting desperate now. For those of you who don’t know, I’m in an online comedy competition that started with over 100 comics and they have whittled it down to the Top 10. I’m currently sitting in the 9th position and voting ends on Saturday! If I get into the Top 5 I fly to Austin to compete for $10,000. Which would work great for me now that I have to buy my own Jim Beam. If you haven’t voted yet, please do, it only requires you to sign in and is painless.
Here’s the link. After you click it, you’ll have to scroll through the ten comics until you get to my picture. Click on it and vote where the checkmark is below my picture.
