Story about this misheard lyric by: norman k

A famous country singer told me about a man in a 'local' band who sang it wrong, while this band opened for the big-name act. This song was popular at the time this took place, so it wasn't like he dug some 'old chestnut' out of the musical archives or anything. It was a current hit, but he got the words wrong.
