1. ‘Everything’s Gonna Be Alright’ by David Lee Murphy and Kenny Chesney
- Misheard: “She rattled the a– in my plastic cup”

2. ‘Knockin’ Boots’ by Luke Bryan

- Correct: “Yeah, birds need bees / And ice needs whiskey” No whiskey sneezing here, just some cool drinks.
3. ‘Things a Man Oughta Know’ by Lainey Wilson

- Correct: “Rodeo for one night”
5. ‘Fix’ by Chris Lane
- Misheard: “That good eat, that long drink, that sugar on your lips”

6. ‘Should’ve Been a Cowboy’ by Toby Keith
- Misheard: “Wearin’ my sex shoes”
- Correct: “Wearing my six-shooter” Toby Keith’s cowboy gear definitely doesn’t include anything called “sex shoes.”
7. ‘Beachin’ by Jake Owen

- Correct: “White sand, cold can” Beach vibes with a cold drink, not anything illicit.
8. ‘Look What God Gave Her’ by Thomas Rhett

- Correct: “Look what God gave her, how perfect He made her” No tomatoes here, just admiration for a perfect creation.
9. ‘Nothin’ to Lose’ by Josh Gracin
- Misheard: “Breaker-breaker one-nine / She’s a big ol’ turd”
- Correct: “Breaker, breaker 1-9 / She’s a big ol’ flirt” Mix-ups like these might leave someone feeling like a real “turd.”
10. ‘Record Year’ by Eric Church
- Misheard: “I’m either gonna get over you or I’m gonna grow out my hair”
- Correct: “I’m either gonna get over you / Or I’m gonna blow out my ears” Eric Church isn’t planning a hair transformation, just some loud music therapy.
11. ‘T-Shirt’ by Thomas Rhett
- Misheard: “We had pantyhose and a view of the parking lot”
- Correct: “We had a patio with a view of a parkin’ lot” Thomas Rhett’s patio view might be dull, but it’s not filled with hosiery.
12. ‘Take a Little Ride’ by Jason Aldean
- Misheard: “Slide your pretty little cellphone over”
- Correct: “Slide your pretty little self on over” Jason Aldean’s more into company than gadgets.
13. ‘Friends in Low Places’ by Garth Brooks

14. ‘Came Here to Forget’ by Blake Shelton

- Correct: “Back at the bar, as thick as thieves” No sticky Steves here—just a bunch of close-knit friends.
15. ‘Big Star’ by Kenny Chesney
- Misheard: “Like she was God’s little sister”
- Correct: “Like she was Garth Brooks in a skirt” God’s little sister? Nah, it’s just Garth Brooks in a skirt, which is equally puzzling.
16. ‘That Don’t Impress Me Much’ by Shania Twain
- Misheard: “And all that extra hold gel in your hair, I don’t like it”
- Correct: “And all that extra hold gel in your hair oughta lock it” Shania’s got some strong opinions about hair gel, and she’s not shy about sharing them.
17. ‘Folsom Prison Blues’ by Johnny Cash
- Misheard: “I’m stuck in wholesome prison”
- Correct: “I’m stuck in Folsom prison” Even with the title right there, Johnny Cash’s prison locale often gets misheard as more wholesome than intended.
18. ‘Redneck Woman’ by Gretchen Wilson
- Misheard: “I’ve got posters on my walls of skinning kittens straight”
- Correct: “I’ve got posters on my wall / of Skynyrd, Kid, and Strait” Thankfully, Gretchen Wilson’s taste in posters leans towards country legends, not anything nefarious.
19. ‘You’ll Think of Me’ by Keith Urban
- Misheard: “Take your cap and leave my shredder”
- Correct: “Take your cat and leave my sweater” Keith Urban isn’t worried about his office supplies; it’s his cozy sweater he’s missing!
20. ‘9 to 5’ by Dolly Parton
- Misheard: “And you think that I would daunt you”
- Correct: “And you think about it, don’t you?” Even legends like Dolly Parton aren’t immune to lyrical confusion. She’s daunting, alright, but not in the way you think!
