What did he say? Misunderstood lyrics.

My wife bought a calander with misunderstood song lyrics. The name of the calander is "'scuse me while I kiss this guy" from Jimi Hendrix. I remember hearing this while I was young and wondering what Jimi was singing about. All of the other ones I've read so far are really lame. So I'm wonder what your personal misunderstood lyric is.
I can't think of anything for myself so I'll do one of my wife's
Wrong lyric: "Only the lonely get laid." from The Motels
Correct lyric is: "Only the lonely can play."

Alright lets hear 'em!

One of my best friends and I are Rock and Roll trivia people..and remember who wrote what, when and what they were wearing when they did it....drives our friends crazy.

But...one song took us forever to figure out a line in. It's the opening line from the Beach Boys "Help Me Ronda"

"Well since you put me down, I've been mumble, muble etc...

We finally figured out it was..."Well since you put me down, I've been out doin in my head"......

For several years we though they were saying "...been outa tune in my head"..

Fun thread..
