OMG: you mean it wasn't in Cleveland ? Holy Cow, I thought for sure it said Cleveland and I was wondering why too.

Well, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is in Cleveland---so not too much of a stretch, right?

I had a Jesus Loves me screw up too. Mine was-They are weak but pee is strong. Made sense to me then, still does.

I know a middle aged woman who still sings "Felice Navidad" as "Felice la de da".

Does anyone remember the magazines that had the song lyrics in them? I think it was during the mid-sixties. Now we can just get on the internet.

My daughter was singing: Peter, James & John & Sambo and I didn't find out what the song actually said until years later while working with younger kids and found out it was: Peter, James & John in a Sail Boat.

ROFL! To this day I get lyrics mixed up, yet if I happen to get an ear-worm (hear a song I keep humming or singing to myself that I can't forget) and I don't know the lyrics to, I'll fill in the unknown words for whatever fits and sing the song that way. Have done that my entire life.

Not sure if it's an 80's or 90's song, don't even know the name of the song or the correct line but I am sure it's not "Pull my taco" Lol! Google says: Sophie B. Hawkins song, As I lay me down original lyrics: ooo lah kah ko. think I like Pull my taco better.
