Story about this misheard lyric by: Lynn Tate

When my husband and I first started dating this song was popular. It came on the radio and he started singing the misheard lyrics. I just about died laughing. At first I though he was kidding and then I realized he really thought that's what it said! That was 15 years ago and I still tease him about it!
