Misheard Song Lyrics
Re: Misheard Song Lyrics
An old Hymn "Bringing in the Sheaves."
When I was a kid, I thought the song was, "Bringing in the Cheese."
I visualized a chef's cart being wheeled in, stacked high with cheese.

Re: Misheard Song Lyrics
1. When I was a kid I always thought "Bad Blood" by Neil Sedaka & Elton John was "Bad Love". I could not figure out why I couldn't find such a song with that title.
2. Dancing In The Moonlight by King Harvest:
Misheard Lyric: "Everybody feelin' a woman right"
Correct Lyric: "Everybody feeling warm and bright"
This one I continued to mishear all the way into my early 20s.

Re: Misheard Song Lyrics
From "El Paso" by Marty Robbins.
"Maybe tomorrow a pullet may find me,
Tonight nothings worse than this pain in my heart."
And hopefully, that chick will be more loyal than Felina.
Correct lyrics.

Correct lyric: "you don't have to sneak in the doorway"
Wrong lyric: "you don't have to sleep in the dark"

Re: Misheard Song Lyrics
The lyric I misunderstood for years was from "Loving You Has Made Me Bananas" by Guy Marks.
The correct lyric is "Father Had the Shipfitter Blues."
I misheard it as "Father sailed the ship in her Blues."
