Story about this misheard lyric by: Amanda

My aunt misheard the lyric as a kid. I was surprised to hear the story. I mean, nobody has 400 children. And a crock in the field? How is that possible? Was someone cooking with a Crock-Pot in the field?

Nonsensical Lyrics:

"The Gambler"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
On a warm summer's evenin',
on a train bound for nowhere
Why They're Nonsensical:
Do trains ever really run without any destination? I've certainly never heard of a train bound for nowhere. After all, unlike cars or trucks, which one can drive around aimlessly and turn on a whim, trains are on tracks directing them somewhere in particular.

Misrhymed Lyrics:

"Lucille"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
After she left us, I ordered more whiskey
Why They're Misrhymed:
ok, so there are some rhymes in this song and I know Kenny didn't intend these lines to rhyme. But whenever I heard this song I just wanted to sing, 'After she left us, I ordered more breakfast.'
Submitted by: Lisa Green-Douglass
 

Inappropriate Lyrics:

"Through the Years"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
I can't remember when you weren't there
when I didn't care for anyone but you
Why They're Inappropriate:
The lyrics, tangled as they are, amount to the statement 'I don't care for you, and I can't remember ever *having* cared for you '.

Bad Grammar in Song Lyrics:

"Through the Years"
The Lyrics:
I can't remember when you weren't there
When I didn't care for anyone but you.
Why:
I think Kenny means he can't remember a time when he DID care for anyone but the woman he's serenading, but what he SAYS is the exact opposite - i.e. "Honey, I can't remember a time when I wasn't in love with somebody else, but it was never with you."

Upbeat Songs With Depressing Lyrics:

"Lucille"
The Lyrics:
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille!
Four hungry children and a crop in the field.
Why:
The melody to the song, especially to these words of the chorus, is a lilting one that could be at home in anything from a joyful hymn to the music played by a carnival ride. But the song is about meeting, in a bar, a woman who ran out on her husband, and then meeting her husband, who, with the words of this chorus, laments her leaving him.
