Real Lyrics -> Bad Grammar in Song Lyrics -> Index
Song lyrics aren't supposed to be a fountain of perfect english, but on the other hand some are just so atrocious, they need to get called out. We're not looking for sentance fragments or the word ain't since there are too many instances to count.
Here's a couple of the most recent entries...

Johnny PayCheck's, "Take This Job and Shove It"
The Lyrics: My woman done left
Why: "Done" is correctly used as a verb (with a helping verb) or an adjective, but never as an adverb.

David Allan Coe's, "You never even called me by my name"
The Lyrics: Well, I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison, and I went to pick her up in the rain; but before I could get to the station in my pickup truck, she got runned over by dammed old train
Why: All right now, my English teacher is covering her ears now! I have heard a pickup truck referred to as a 'she', which is incorrect; threfore, you don't know WHAT got hit - the mother or the truck!
