The Proclaimers, "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)"
Misheard Lyrics:
But I wouldn't want 500 miles
And I wouldn't want 500 more
Just to be the man who worked up those ten miles
To fall down at your door.
Original Lyrics:
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door.
