My sister claims that a friend of hers thought Redemption Song began with the line:
"Old Silas was a rabbi...."
(Quite why Bob would've been singing about this remains a mystery....)

I always thought Whitney Houston was shaving all her muff for me.

Left hook a job in the city...

And Ike and Tina's version is much faster and more manic. I can understand the lyrics better in the original CCR version.

There's a great thread about misheard Prince lyrics here, somewhere. Y'all should do a search for it, it's hilarious!
