Misheard Lyrics:
I love to go a-wandering along the mountain track
And as I go, I love to sing, my knapsack on my back
Found a reed, found a rod, found a reed
Found a ra-ha-ha-ha-ha-hahd
And as I go, I love to sing, my knapsack on my back
Found a reed, found a rod, found a reed
Found a ra-ha-ha-ha-ha-hahd
Original Lyrics:
I love to go a-wandering along the mountain track
And as I go, I love to sing, my knapsack on my back
Valderi, Valdera, Valderi
Valdera-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
And as I go, I love to sing, my knapsack on my back
Valderi, Valdera, Valderi
Valdera-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Misheard Lyrics:
Or to to me
Or to me
Or to me
Or to ma-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Or to me
Or to me
Or to ma-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Original Lyrics:
Valderi
Valdera
Valderi
Valdera-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Valdera
Valderi
Valdera-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
I thought it odd that they were singing 'or to me, or to ma-ha-ha-ha...!' and that sort of thing; it just didn't fit with the rest of the lyrics.
