Mercedes Baby Lyrics

hold loosely to my hand
cause it's a long long road
and you don't know and i don't know where it goes.
or where it ends. it's a long long road. you've gotta
get back front page baby. take turns driving your mercedes.
get back. you don't even know if you can.
get back on the runway honey. do it for love not for money.
get back. you don't even know if you can.
it's complicated. it's long and winded. i've been frustrated.
but i know you can make it. get back on the front page baby.
i'm yours if you don't say maybe.
get back. you don't even know if you can.

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.

For purposes of this commentary, (1) is the singer/narrator and (2) is the audience. (1) and (2) are either very close friends or romantic partners and personally I lean toward the latter. In the song (1) tells (2) that despite (2)'s past difficulties (1) is behind him/her all the way; (1) encourages (2) to keep going and not to give up. (1) also seems to express commitment to their relationship no matter how long or hard the road is.
