Thread Name: Misheard folk song lyrics
Subject: RE: Misheard folk song lyrics
One of my favourites: a guy in Carmarthen 40 years ago used to sing "The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo". He sang it word-perfect apart from, "As I walk along the Bongshey Bong with an independent air" instead of "the Bois de Boulogne". I've always had to sing it that way ever since!
