We didn't have to convenience of looking up the lyrics on the internet so if the album didn't come with a lyric sheet we were screwed lol.
    the internet has been wonderful for learning how many song lyrics I've been screwing up all my life!!! LOL

    The bottom line is that neither word makes any sense at all, but the word is 'heavily'.
    Maybe it is a Texas Twang/southern drawl, but I hear it perfectly ( as am from same area and such)...

    Ol'55 I keep hearing "riding with faded love". When in my mind I know it is "Lady Luck" but I think of the song Faded Love playing on an old AM radio as he drives away... Seems more apropos ?

    In Busy Being Fabulous, the line goes:
    But now my baby, the joke is on you.

    I always thought and is sound suspiciously like:
    But knock knock baby, the joke is on you.

    Just saw a tweet from a person who claims they always thought the song was 'Itchy Woman'. If you sing it like that, it is quite amusing.

    I was just thinking about this the other day. I was listening to the Don Henley song "Who Owns this Place" and I cannot figure out the line after "you might get restless; I might get strange" at 1:50. It sounds like "everything you do [something something something]"

    Anybody have a guess? Again, it occurs at 1:50.

    I know what I have on the site isn't correct, but I don't know what to replace it with.

    There's another part of the song I'm also confused about, but let's wait and see if anyone can clear this one up first!

    "I might get strange"? Where I come from that has a double meaning. I'll listen at home and see if I can pick out the rest.
