Line 333:
* Canadian folk song "This Land of Ours" contains the line: "I have walked on the sand of the Grand Banks of Newfoundland." The Grand Banks are a site where ocean currents converge and are especially good for ''fishing''; you may well have walked on the sand there, but it would have required SCUBA gear and significant weights.
* [[Billy Joel]]'s song "The Ballad of Billy The Kid" includes the lines "And his daring life of crime/Made him a legend in his time/East and west of the Rio Grande." Years later, Joel shamefacedly admitted bungling his geography—the Rio Grande flows west to east, and you can only be north or south of it.
* The first verse of "Don't Stop Believin'" by [[Journey (band)|Journey]] includes the line "Born and raised in south Detroit". Thanks to a bend in the Detroit River, there is no south Detroit - that land area is called Windsor, and it's in [[Canada]].
