Xanadu Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Alright...this can be a fun thread... When I was a kid, I thought the intro to "Working Man" went: "Lock it up, 78 and I go to work at 9" No wonder I had no clue WTH Geddy was talking about! (I have a few more but I'll wait and make sure others play along first. ;) ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlit Dreamer Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I have misheard lyrics in Working Man, too. I used to hear: I got no time for idiots,I'm workin' all the time. Original: I got no time for livin', yes,I'm workin' all the time. :P 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
