Misheard Lyrics.

[Mikey]

Another AC/DC that I misheard

You Shook Me All Night Long

She was a fast machine
She kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman I had ever seen
She had me circumcised
Telling me no lies

Kenny Rogers "you picked a fine to to leave me Lucile"

The correct lis is

"with 4 hungry children and crops in the field"

I thought it said

with 400 children and crops in the field

Don't feel too bad. I used to think the same thing. You have to admit though it did sound more heart felt that way. "400 children" That sure would be alot of mouths to feed.

^^^ Opps,.. sorry.
As you can see I don't follow them,.. & they all sound the same to me. lol.

I can't understand a thing Angus Young from ACDC says..

"Dirty Deeds,.. & the Dunder Deeds" ... I always wondered what that meant... Then I learned it was "Dirty Deeds & there Done Dirt Cheap"...

I still can't understand anything he says.

Yeah especially since Angus isn't even the singer

(You are perhaps referring to Bon Scott or Brian Johnson who replaced B.Scott after his death).

I also remember a friend of mine and I getting into an argument about the title of Stevie Windwood's song in the 80's "Higher Love" - the misquote was Hired love. - Makes the song a little less altruistic.

Bruce
Don't Bring Me Down .....
Bruce
Don't Bring Me Down .....
Bruce
Don't Bring Me Down .....

That one is toooo funny. I heard an radio interview with Jeff Lynn who said they eventually began singing the wrong lyrics on purpose because everybody thought that's what they were actually saying.

It was actually - Grouse

Grouse - to complain regularly and continually, often in a way that is not constructive.

[mitchedwards]

How about "dirty Deeds done Dirt Cheap" my buddy used to say "Dundder chief!?!?!?!?
Noy sure where he got that but okay.

The first few times I heard that song i swore those were the lyrics too.

Dont Pull Your Love Out On Me Baby
If you do then I think that maybe i'll just lay me down...

Another one for me is Led Zeppelin's BLACK DOG .......

The real lyrics
A big legged woman aint got no soul.

What I hear
Big lipped woman aint got no soul.

Steely Dan - Show Biz Kids

Original Lyrics
"Go to Las Wages, Los Wages, go to Las Wages..."

Lyrics I heard
"Bolan's not Swedish, not Swedish, Bolan's not Swedish.."

I thought they were singing about Marc Bolan from T-Rex not being
Swedish...and I thought "They are right, he's not..."


Marc Bolan...Not Swedish.

The one that always got me was CCR's "There's a Bad Moon Rising" It sounds just like bath room on the right.

I admit it, I've done this, and I know the word you're referring to!

When I was a kid I used to sing "Boogie Up and Dance" instead of "Boogie Wonderland".

Me too. That is another classic misheard lyrics for my list as well.
