Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Lil Nas X

Misheard lyrics (also called mondegreens) occur when people misunderstand the lyrics in a song. These are NOT intentional rephrasing of lyrics, which is called parody. For more information about the misheard lyrics available on this site, please read our FAQ.

This page contains a list of the songs that have stories about their misheard lyrics submitted.

Song names are sorted by first letter, excluding A and The. This is sorted by song title only, not by song title and performer. So if two different performers preformed the same song, you'll see misheard lyrics for both on the same page (provided the song title was spelt the same both times, and misheard lyrics have been submitted for both!).

I'm gonna take my horse to the hotel room, gonna ride till I can't no more.
The Real Lyrics:
I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road, gonna ride till I can't no more.
The Story: I actually never understood why the title was Old Town Road, since I never heard a reference to a road in the song. I thought it was a dirty song about a rapping cowboy having a passionate tryst with his horse. - Submitted by: Joel

It's hard for you when you're fartin'

The Real Lyrics:
It's hard for you when you're fightin'
And nobody knows it when you're silent.
