I was listening to an old record of a gospel group that I had never heard before and still don't know who they are. The music was good, but the record was scratchy and the sound quality was not very clear. A song came on and I heard them sing, "Hickory on the rock." I couldn't figure out what a gospel song had to do with a hickory on a rock. When I heard the chorus again, I realized why that sounded stupid. The correct lyrics were "Victory on the rock." Duh!
