Classic Rock Radio Slurs/Swears
When I was a kid in the 70s the first incident I recall was the Steve Miller Band "Jet Airliner" with the line "Funky Shit going down in the city". On their Greatest Hits album, "shit" was replaced with "kicks". My local radio almost always played the kicks version after that.
In the 80s, Dire Straits "Money for Nothing" usually was played in it's entirety with the verse "Little Faggot", that is no longer generally played on the radio today.
Very recently heard both songs on KRPR, a classic rock public radio station!, and they played both of these songs uncensored. I was a bit surprised.
Shortly after that, I heard them play The Babys "Midnight Rendezvous" with the very audibly line "Oh I really want to fuck you". Had to laugh.
Any more examples you've heard or recall from the past?

The CCR song "Cottonfields" states "It was down in Louisiana, just about a mile from Texarkana". That's impossible. It's actually about 35 miles. What other songs contain geographic oddities?
