"You Ain't Woman Enough to Take My Man"
Misheard Lyrics: For you're a big-toothed hen.
I happen to know it, And I'm gonna stand right here. Original Lyrics: For you to get to him,
I'd have to move over, And I'm gonna stand right here. |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Robert Jones First heard this as a child, when the misheard lyrics were as nearly as I could make out what was being said. As a grown up, I heard it again, after a long span of not hearing it, and my grown up perception and language skills made it more obvious what was actually being said. |
Misrhymed Song Lyrics:
"Coal Miner's Daughter"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: The work we done was hard
At night we'd sleep 'cause we were tard Why They're Misrhymed: Um, first of all, 'the work we done' is incorrect, grammatically speaking. It should be 'the work we did was hard' or “the work we had done was hard”. Second, and most obvious, 'hard' and 'tired' do not rhyme and never will, even with the Southern accent that makes it sounds really, really, really bad. Also, 'at night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired' doesn't make sense, because it implies that tiredness from their work is the only reason they sleep, even though sleep is natural. This song is screwed up.
