For as long as I could remember I thought Trisha Yearwood's "She's in love with the boy" went..."when you, yourself was just a hasty cowboy, who didn't have a motor home." It wasn't until I was married and was singing the song outloud that my wife about wet herself laughing and informed me it was "you yourself was just a hayseed plough boy who didn't have a row to hoe" Oops! I've tried many times to have her see that my way made sense too. No matter what she isn't buying what I'm selling!
