The Kingston Trio, "The River Is Wide"
Misheard Lyrics:
When love is young, then love is fine.
Just like a chimp when first it's new.
But love grows old and wax is cold.
Just like a chimp when first it's new.
But love grows old and wax is cold.
Original Lyrics:
When love is young, then love is fine.
Just like a gem when first it's new.
But love grows old and waxes cold.
Just like a gem when first it's new.
But love grows old and waxes cold.
