My inner editor is going to twitch something fierce. But I still love these songs (and you might, too) — it's songs with bad grammar somewhere in 'em. Please post the lyric if it's not obvious.

I can start us off with one-hit wonder Edison Lighthouse's Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) -

Quote:
She ain't got no money
Her clothes are kinda funny
Her hair is kinda wild and free...




So. whatcha got, fellow singing bad grammarians?

Sorry, not on computer can't cut and paste.

Both stuttering songs, "Baby you ain't seen nothing yet," by Bachman Turner Overdrive and "My Generation," by The Who have atrocious grammar.

Steve Miller's Take the Money and Run tortures what the facts are into what the facts is, in order to rhyme with taxes.

Me and you and a dog named Boo should technically be you, a dog named Boo, and me.

Not exactly free of grammatical errors.

Song: “O Mistress mine where are you roaming?”
BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
(from Twelfth Night)
O Mistress mine where are you roaming?
O stay and hear, your true love's coming,
That can sing both high and low.
Trip no further pretty sweeting.
Journeys end in lovers' meeting,
Every wise man's son doth know.

What is love, 'tis not hereafter,
Present mirth, hath present laughter:
What's to come, is still unsure.
In delay there lies no plenty,
Then come kiss me sweet and twenty:
Youth's a stuff will not endure.
