A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

I used to believe…

for the song cotton eyed joe i thought the lyrics were
" bed im for knee cotton eyed jo ive been mary a long time agowhere did u come gum where do you mow"
the real lyrics are
"If it had't been for Cotton Eye Joe
2x + 2x I'd been married long time ago
Where did you come from where did you go
Where did you come from Cotton Eye Joe "

— cotton eyed joe
