Starry Night Lyrics

No socks in my pointer shoes
A gray and black sweater from a good man for you to use
I got my bottle in a paper bag
I'm apologizing for the smell of booze

Well it's a starry night for you
Well I'll be dancing my dandy feet for you
Well I drunk sixteen mouthfuls of whiskey
All I see is you
Come along and sing my soul

Here comes the summer breeze
Green grass is tickling my toes
Winter tells me he's not far from home
I got a gist he's down the road

Well it's a starry night for you
Well I'll be dancing my dandy feet for you
Well I drunk sixteen mouthfuls of whiskey
All I see is you
Come along and sing my soul

I woke up at four A.M.
It's better to be safe than sorry she said
Well I rolled over one last time
There's too many feet for a single bed

Well it's a starry night for you
I'll be dancing my dandy feet for you
Well I spent fourteen hours on the railroad
I feel I'm a lifetime from home
I drunk sixteen mouthfuls of whiskey
All I see is you
Come on baby sing my soul

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.
