Ok whats the most ridiculously wrong line you've heard someone sing along with a song? I have a couple. My buddys girlfriend was listening to Rusted Root I think it was and they have a song called Send Me on My Way but they say it kind of funny in the song. Apparently she liked to sing it Simeon the Whale :p My friend never corrected her because of how cute it was. Another one of my friends thought the line in the Whitesnake song Here I go Again (I think that the title) He thought the line in the song was Like a Twister I was born to walk alone. lol Twister instead of drifter.
And for the grand finale I have my own. When I was a little kid and I heard that song I Believe in Miracles, I thought the person was singing I Believe in Merkles. I thought a Merkle was a magical creature that you had to believe in to see or something like that. I remember asking my mom "Mom whats a Merkle? Cuz I think want to believe in em." Pretty ridiculous huh? Please feel free to share yours too.

I once heard a kid singing along with a Trace Adkins song. Her version: "Honky tonkin' Donkey Kong."

Hey, she was maybe 6. What does she know about badonkadonk?

I often confuse "Livin on tulsa time", with "livin on closin time" for some reason.

  I remember as a teenager, my mom was driving me and some of my friends to the mall for some power shopping when she belted out a misheard lyric that made me want to roll over and die from embarrassment.
  
  The lyric was "I get high smelling pots of glue" and my mom sang at the top of her lungs and out of key, "I get high smelling parts of you"

Van Halen's "Panama" had only been out a short while, a buddy's
sister, and her boyfriend, sang...

"What's that...Padded Bra, Padded Bra...coming down the avenue"

and they believed those were the lyrics despite our efforts otherwise.

I used to think in Mr. Mister's "Kyrie Eleison" that he was actually saying "Carry a laser down the road that I must travel."

I'm bracing myself for the laughs that will follow...

I had a boss that sang:

"If her daddy's rich, take her Alfa Romeo"

Instead of:

"If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal"

From Mungo Jerry, "In The Summertime". To his credit, it is about driving around on a nice day, and there is even an automobile sound effect in the song.

Rock on!

In National Acrobat by Black Sabbath, I had a friend who thought Ozzy was singing "You have to let your body sleet to let yourself in my heart."

The line is actually "You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on."
