Loretta Lynn's, "The Message"
Misheard Lyrics:
For you're a big-toothed hen
I happen to know it
And I'm gonna stand right here.
I happen to know it
And I'm gonna stand right here.
Original Lyrics:
For you to get to him
I'd have to move over
And I'm gonna stand right here.
I'd have to move over
And I'm gonna stand right here.
Grandmaster Flash's, "The Message"

How the beat is going on there?

How I keep from going under?
Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five's, "The Message"
Misheard Lyrics:
I feel like an outlaw, broke my last glass jaw
Original Lyrics:
I feel like an outlaw, broke my last Dad's jaw
Nothing else makes sense. There is no such thing as a "glass jaw" that can be broken as most incorrect lyrics state the words to be in this song.
