Nebraska Lyrics

Well it seems as though this light will never turn green
I've been driving for a while, can't tell where I've been
I got nothing on my mind, I got nothing to do
I'm just driving around listening to Nebraska

Well, my girl, she told me last night I'm not the one
Half my heart was ripped out but I still got some
And if this light should stay red
I'll be sitting here listening to Nebraska

I was trying so hard to get to you
Now I'm driving so far to forget you
Well, tonight I should be lying with you in a never-ending night
Well, tonight I should be lying in a never-ending kiss
But I'm alone on this dark road listening to Nebraska

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.
