Lonely Road Lyrics

I could be and be free
Go to every party
And be me and funny
Maybe then they’d see
I can laugh I could smile
Go out drinking and be wild
If I wasn’t such a lonely child

I could dance and romance
Lose my pants at every chance
I could croon I could swoon
Without a care in the night like a loon
I could pay for my meals
But I feel the need to steal
I wish I wasn’t such a lonely road

It seems to me
Man cannot be free
Knowing what he knows

And if I try
Well then lord please let me die
I wish I wasn’t such a lonely road

I could go with the flow
And just float along
I could chill and get ill
And take hits from the bong
I could go to the movies
By myself and not feel wrong
I mine wasn’t such a lonely song

It seems to me
Man cannot be free
Knowing what he knows

And if I try
Well then Jesus let me die
I wish I wasn’t such a lonely
Such an old an lonely
I wish I wasn’t such a cold and lonely road

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.
