Original Lyrics:
Who wrote the book of love

Story about this misheard lyric by: Gordon S. Little

Actually I'm not the one who misheard it this way. It was my wife's late mother who thought those were the words. That sounds amazing, but if you listen to the song and the way the singer distorts his vowels it's perfectly understandable. And yes, my wife's mother DID come from a farming background!

Insincere Song Lyrics:

"Who Wrote The Book On Love"
The Insincere Lyrics:
Chapter Two you tell her you're never, never, never, never, never gonna part
In Chapter Three remember the meaning of romance
In Chapter Four you break up but you give her just one more chance
Why They're Insincere:
One would think she would say, 'what happened to 'never, never, never, never, never gonna part'?' when Chapter Four came around. And then *she's* being given 'just one more chance' when she's not the one who broke things off? She'd be willing to stick around and put up with that kind of arrogance?
