One of the "granny's" living on my street heard my transistor radio playing "My Baby Does the Hanky Panky". She wanted to know why anyone would write a song about "My Baby Has a Dirty Hanky!"
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- a friend thought that the song "dirty deeds done dirt cheap" was saying "dirty deeds dunderchief"— dubs
- on "highway to hell" i always thought it goes "baby see, baby do" instead of "hey satan, payin´ my dues"— Miss Understood
- That because Gerber Baby Food had a baby on it real babies were put in there. Thanks a lot cousin!— Nicole
- I used to believe that a baby shower was a tiny bathtub with a showerhead just for the baby.— Amy
- I swear I heard a Disney Channel/Radio Disney song where the chorus was a repeated “Damn it”— SpengBab
- when i was younger i thought ac/dc's dirty deeds (done dirt cheap), was dirty knees and the thunder cheeks.— S
