As a kid I was convinced that a line in Andy Williams's Moon River mentioned 'waiting round the bend, My Huckleberry Hound'
And
that Jimi Hendrix urged 'so let us stop talking bull$h¡t now' during All Along The Watchtower
Utterly convinced I was.

Utterly non-PC trigger alert, but I had a friend who used to mishear the lyrics to Steve Miller's 'Fly Like an Eagle' as 'fly like a Negro'...

"But the joys of love are fleeting / Poppy, rose and columbine." (The Seekers)
I've spent decades thinking this was poetry and am a bit disappointed.

The Fugees/Lauryn Hill version of "killing me softly with his song"
When I was a kid, I thought Lauryn Hill sang "killing me softly with his dong"

When I was a kid, there was a long-running TV ad for a collection of classical music on a set of LPs (that's vinyl to you young whippersnappers). That's probably why I thought the Rolling Stones song "Brown Sugar" was called "Franz Schubert" (to be fair, I wasn't a Stones fan and didn't listen to their garbled lyrics much).
