What are some song lyrics that you've misheard over the years?

You Sexy Thing by Hot Chocolate. When they say "I believe in miracles", as a little kid I thought they were saying "I believe in Mentos". Lol.

In John Fogerty's Centerfield, "Put me in Coach" sounds like "Put me in cold."

@Poppies My misheard Fogarty lyric was from Down on the Corner: I always heard "howdy in the street" rather than "out in the street". I wasn't alone; it was my son's favorite song at the time and he sang it "howdy" as well. Never had the gumption to tell John, or either of his brothers, that. But then I didn't come to realize my error until after we lost contact.

@Poppies Worked with his non-musical brother. His kids had playdate with mine wihen the brothers went to a Giants game. (Put Me In Coach came out shortly after that, so I always took some credit.) My wife worked a long time for his intellectual properties attorney as well.
