The Dustin Lynch + Jelly Roll ‘Chevrolet’ Lyric We Had Wrong

The Dustin Lynch + Jelly Roll ‘Chevrolet’ Lyric We Had Wrong

This week’s No. 1 song in country music belongs to Dustin Lynch and Jelly Roll with their melodic hit, “Chevrolet.”

The song borrows from Dobie Gray’s “Drift Away,” but has completely different lyrics.

During a recent episode of Taste of Country Nights: On Demand, Lynch admitted that he didn’t even think the song would be a single off of the album (2023s Killed the Cowboy), let alone become a hit.

Maybe that’s why when he was recording one of the first lines of the song, Lynch didn’t feel the need to clear up exactly what he’s saying.

Dustin Lynch and Jelly Roll’s “Chevrolet” — Misheard Lyrics!

The opening of the song features that guitar riff we know oh so well, then the first line: “She was dressed to kill / I was in my boots.”

The next line, however, is what’s leaving fans scratching their heads.

The actual lyric is, “So I had her pegged as the uptown type.” 

With Lynch being from a small Tennessee town (Tullahoma), his Southern accent is on full display here, and it sounds like he is saying something along the lines of, “So I had to pay for the uptown time.”

Listen for yourself and see if you can hear what Lynch intended you to hear:

This isn’t the first time that a chart-topping country song had some lyrics that needed to be explained: It happened with Morgan Wallen‘s “Cowgirls,” as well. Those twangy accents will get ya!
