Suitcase in Hand Lyrics

at the station the train is leaving at eight
nothing's gonna make me stay hey hey
no room for trouble in this old suitcase
nothing's gonna make me stay hey hey
and i'd call if there was something to say but hey hey hey
nothing's gonna make me stay hey hey

i'd call if there was something to say but hey hey hey
nothing's gonna make me stay hey hey
and though it would have been a year in may hey hey hey
nothing's gonna make me stay hey hey

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.

What a shame, no other comments :-(.

This song brought about my love for Casiotone for the Painfully Alone. Although simple in lyrics, it's about running away from trivial troubles and finding peace. "No room for trouble in this old suitcase" points this theme out the best I think, in that wherever this train takes him, his troubles will not follow. Even the beat to the song indicates that through all the chaos, a symphonic and relaxing rhythm can be found. A very encouraging and hopeful song.
