Believe Me Sir Lyrics

Believe me sir I’ve missed my train
I guess I’m bound to roam the midway
Deathbeds and pearly gates
Killing time with cigarette stains
Believe me sir I’ve missed my train

Believe me sir I’m not running away
I’ve got bags I’ve packed full of memories
It may not be much
But this suitcase goes every where with me
Believe me sir I’m not running away

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.

This is a really good song, especially the second verse. I recommend to anyone who reads this: check In Civilian Clothing out on iTunes. Buy this song, then buy the whole album. You'll really like it.
