What did he say? Misunderstood lyrics.

My wife bought a calander with misunderstood song lyrics. The name of the calander is "'scuse me while I kiss this guy" from Jimi Hendrix. I remember hearing this while I was young and wondering what Jimi was singing about. All of the other ones I've read so far are really lame. So I'm wonder what your personal misunderstood lyric is.
I can't think of anything for myself so I'll do one of my wife's
Wrong lyric: "Only the lonely get laid." from The Motels
Correct lyric is: "Only the lonely can play."

Alright lets hear 'em!

Cpdunn99...you are amazingly close.

Inagaddagavida was actually written by half of Iron Butterfly when they where in Europe. Wanting to get the rest of the band to learn the song before they got home they called them and sang it to them over a rather poor trans-atlantic connection. The guys in the states heard Inagaddagavida, the song WAS supposed to be In The Garden Of Eden!!! When all the band got together, they liked Inagaddagavida better so they left it that way...

Never thought I'd get to use that tid bit!

"Louie Louie" lyrics have to be the all time mystery. Anyone know the real ones or are they unprintable on this family oriented site?
