Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Miranda Lambert

Misheard lyrics (also called mondegreens) occur when people misunderstand the lyrics in a song. These are NOT intentional rephrasing of lyrics, which is called parody. For more information about the misheard lyrics available on this site, please read our FAQ.

This page contains a list of the songs that have stories about their misheard lyrics submitted.

Song names are sorted by first letter, excluding A and The. This is sorted by song title only, not by song title and performer. So if two different performers preformed the same song, you'll see misheard lyrics for both on the same page (provided the song title was spelt the same both times, and misheard lyrics have been submitted for both!).

Miranda Lambert's, "Only Prettier"
The Misheard Lyrics:
We like William McKinley.
The Real Lyrics:
We might think a little differently.
The Story: I wonder if she and her boyfriend would have a time traveling machine and go back in time to the 1896 Presidential Election and the 1900 Presidential Election where they would vote for William McKinley for President. Even though I’m wrong, it’s still fun to pretend she and her boyfriend really did have a time traveling machine. - Submitted by: Jack The Ripper
