Misheard Lyrics:
We'll keep our spirit alive, all day long.
Original Lyrics:
We'll keep the spirit alive, on and on.
The "all day long" part of the phrase definitely sounds correct the three times it occurs in the song. However, on the third occurrence of the phrase in the song at time mark 3:06, the word "the" appears to be replaced with "our". The only place where Michael McDonald appears to pronounce the phrase differently than in the first two occurrences.
