Misheard Song Lyrics

My mother would relate how when as a child she heard the hymn “Bringing in the Sheaves” thought the lyrics were “Bringing in the Cheese.” She sang at the top of her lungs about bringing the cheese into that church for years. No wonder they came rejoicing… 🧀
 

Blondie - In the Flesh
Verse

Went walking one day on the lower East side
Met you with a girlfriend, you were so divine
She said, "Hands off this one sweetie, this boy is mine."
I couldn't resist you, I'm not deaf, dumb, and blind

I always thought it was

When walking one day on the mirror ????????
Met you with a girlfriend, you were so blind
She said, "Hands off this one sweetie, this boy is mine."
I couldn't resist you, I'm not pepper am I? 🤷‍♂️😆

After 84 years I thought it was bringing in the sheep. Thanks for educating me. :p
 
One teenage girl I knew when I was a kid insisted on singing along to this record
but insisted the lyrics were "BOB-A-RANG, BOB-A-RANG..!"

It was all I could do to not burst out laughing.

And then there was another girl who was puzzled and asked why anyone would write/sing a song about fish... as she thought the title of this
was "The Age of Aquariums"...

(I'm not making this up!! LOL) :ROFLMAO:
 
Steely Dan's "Do it again" (best guitar solo I ever heard). Any way I used to think it was, "In the mornin' you go gunnin' for the man who stole your wallet".

It is actually for the man who "stole your water".

Makes little sense unless it was an inside only known event by the lyricist??
 
Misheard Lyrics by Peter Kay, is very good, but it
has some bad language in it, so if you want to hear
it, go to YouTube and call it up.

I was in the shower hearing a song that went

"Going to take my horse to the hotel room, going to ride till I can't no more"

I got out, looked at the screen (believe it or not, I wasn't shocked if that HAD been the words, you know with today's song lyrics) then saw the title was "Old town road" so it WAS

"Going to take my horse to the Old town Road, going to ride till I can't no more"

Not as wild as misheard lyrics of "Daddy don't you walk so fast" as "Daddy do you want a bath?"
