Country Music's Misheard Lyrics: What We've Been Singing Incorrectly

  • "Big Star" by Kenny Chesney (2003)

    Misheard lyrics: “Like she was God’s little sister.”
    Actual lyrics: “Like she was Garth Brooks in a skirt.”

    The chorus of the song includes the lyrics, “She was a big star at Banana Joe’s Bar / Where she sang karaoke every night / She said, ‘If you work hard to get where you are / It feels good in the hot spotlight’ / She was a big star.”

  • "Hurricane" by Luke Combs (2016)

    Misheard lyrics: “Rain was dropping.”
    Actual lyrics: “Rain was driving.”

    The chorus of “Hurricane”: “The moon went hiding / Stars quit shining / Rain was driving / Thunder ‘n lightning / You wrecked my whole world when you came / And hit me like a hurricane / You hit me like a hurricane.”

  • "9 to 5" by Dolly Parton (1980)

    Misheard lyrics: “And you think that I would daunt you.”
    Actual lyrics: “And you think about it, don’t you?”

    “9 to 5’s” famous chorus, “Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living / Barely getting by, it’s all taking and no giving / They just use your mind, and they never give you credit / It’s enough to drive you crazy if you let it.”

  • "Friends in Low Places" by Garth Brooks (1990)

    Misheard lyrics: “I’m not big on sausage gravy.”
    Actual lyrics: “I’m not big on social graces.”

    The catchy chorus, “‘Cause I’ve got friends in low places / Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away / And I’ll be OK / Yeah, I’m not big on social graces / Think I’ll slip on down to the oasis / Oh, I’ve got friends in low places.”

  • "You'll Think of Me" by Keith Urban (2002)

    Misheard lyrics: “Take your cap and leave my shredder.”
    Actual lyrics: “Take your cat and leave my sweater.”

    The chorus includes the lyrics, “And take your cat and leave my sweater / ‘Cause we have nothing left to weather / In fact, I’ll feel a whole lot better / But you’ll think of me, you’ll think of me.”
