Indeed it was. Pretty funny excerpt from the wiki on the song

Manfred Mann's Earth Band's recording of the song features several changed lyrics. The most prominent change is in the chorus, where Springsteen's "cut loose like a deuce" is replaced with "revved up like a deuce."[2][3][4] This is commonly misheard as "wrapped up like a douche" (the V sound in "revved" is almost unpronounced, and the S sound in "deuce" comes across as "SH" due to a significant lisp)."[5][6] Springsteen himself has joked about the controversy, claiming that it was not until Manfred Mann rewrote the song to be about a feminine hygiene product that it became popular.[7]

When I was a kid I could figure out why they would say douche. Too funny.

You guys owe me for this one. I mean... I'm about to literally save your lives right here.

How? Simple!

How can you live without an Air Supply?!

I'd like to take Air Supply and REO Speedwagon, and rapid-fire nut-punch every single one of them.

Twice.
