Red Lane Lyrics

I drove you down the dirty track
Heard you hissing in the Red lane
Come on you thirsty little pilgrim
We're moving house again
Make your back get longer
You'll see it sweat behind a barrow
And if this trip gets any longer
Better keep it lean and narrow
Yeah I could handle a bit of justice
That razor's never too cold to swallow
Forty days and nights of cutting it close
Just to keep the Red lane hollow
So drive me down the Red lane
Let me hear you hissing in the dirty track
I'm going to run away so far this time
And I'm never coming back
I drove you down the dirty track
Heard you hissing in the Red lane
So come on you thirsty little pilgrim
We're moving house again
Go down in the Red lane

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
