Most Butchered Song Lyrics!!!!!
 

I'll start! :)

Let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell him about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry

For most of my life I sang the last line as FAMOUS cry!!!!! :lol

This is a story my former pastor John Kershaw always told and I thought it was worthy of this thread... when he first came to the United States.. to attend ABI (I think thats the name of it LOL) in Tulsa, in his first chapel service they sang I Live On...

That song drove him absolutely nuts for years and years... he wanted to know why they were singing about some cartoon characters wife... but he sang it anyways........

OLIVE OIL YES OLIVE OIL!!! :hanky

The worst song I've heard goes like this;


He ain't never ever, done me nothin' ever done me nothin' but good.
He ain't never ever, done me nothin' ever done me nothin' but good.
Nothin' but good, nothin' but good.

And there is the beautiful

Cain't nobody do me like Jesus,
Cain't nobody do me like the Lord,
Cain't nobody do me like Jesus,
He's myyyyy,yyyy Friend.



That song really moves me.

Bringing in the Sheaves.

My Mom thought they were singing bringing in the SHEETS! :)

That's an old Andra'e Crouch song, Pastor P, that was good in it's day...he first recorded it on a live album...it was great!!

I had heard.... not sure if true that John Chance wrote that song.

Wasn't that "Live in London"? That was a wild album in it's day. that and the Imperials "Watery Grave". I think I recall correctly that a visiting Evangelist preached against them......

I've got the holy ghost done in my soul.

I wouldn't take nothing for my Jersey Cow (Journey now)

There will be peas in the valley.

I am a turnip with a hole out through the end.

Dottie Rambo, I think...

This world is not my home
I'm just a passing through
If heaven's not my home
Dear Lord what would I do?
The angel's pecked on me
'til I'm an open sore
and I can't feel at home
in this world anymore
:lol

No, the one before that...in New York I think...it's been so long now.

My cousin used to sing "He is Lord, He is Lord, He has ribbons on his head and He is Lord!":D She was about 3 or 4 at the time and she would just let it rip!

She is now working with her brother in a Home Missions church in the St. Louis Area. Pastor Poster may know her as Shana, Sister to Darren, who is husband to Bro. Haney's assistant. :)

:lol

Brother you need to quit changing the words in my posts... your quote looks like I called Shana Darren's brother and Darrens wife's husband...


That is worse than Ribbons on his head!:pirate:pirate:pirate

Do you remember the song "He is exalted, He is exalted, He is exalted on high..."?

I can't hear it without thinking of the kid at church who used to sing "He is exhausted..."

(He was being serious!)

You didn't catch the error in time! :D Don't you hate it when folks do that?

what about the one "We exalt thee oh Lord..."

Maybe we could change it to "We EXHAUST thee oh Lord"

Actually, the Lord and I were discussing this very song the other day and He informed me that he does indeed sing it that way where you are concerned!:pirate:pirate:pirate You exhaust me!:D


J/K J/K Just couldn't resist!

LOL that may be true. :pirate

There was a new convert years back at my church who wanted to know why we were singing "Have a little chocolate Jesus".
:lol :lol :lol

:scoregood

Hey, what about those prayer wheels?

http://www.tibetanprayerwheels.com/

Reckon what else we sing (say) that we don't really mean?

I sang:

"Olive oil, olive oillllll, through eternnnnniiiiittttyyyyy, O-LI-ive, OIL!!!!" (at the top of my lungs)

...for YEARS...until I was about 12 and finally actually cracked open the hymnal and read the lyrics as I sang!

My former pastor's wife was once heard, during a shockamoo service, to be singing (with her eyes closed as she was jammin on the organ).........


Momma don't allow no shoutin, round here.
Momma don't allow no shoutin, round here.
Well, I don't care what Momma don't allow
We're gonna shout anyhow
Momma don't allow no shoutin, round here.

Surely you have heard that He is the wheel in the middle of the wheel...

and I know you have seen the prayer wheels designed to help you pray for an hour a day!

Are your sure you have Apostolic roots?:pirate:pirate

instead of "at the table....."......I used to think the choir was singing Mashed Potatoes"........

Can't nobody do me like Jesus...

This always brings up more questions than answers - I just can't sing it.
