Making Tracks Lyrics

Baby, baby, baby
When are you next coming to town?
Baby, baby, baby
Ain't been much going down

I don't mean to cause, to cause no alarm
I'm just here fooling around
Got my guitar in my arms
And I'm picking myself up off the ground
Up off the ground

[Chorus]
All I've ever wanted to do
Is walk down the street with you
All I've ever wanted to be
Is everything you mean to me

[Chorus 2]
All I've ever wanted to do
Is walk you down my avenue
And all I've ever wanted to be
Is everything you are to me

Baby, baby
When are you next coming to town?
Baby, baby
Ain't been much going down

I don't need to cause, to cause no alarm
I'm just fooling around
Got my guitar in my arms
And I'm picking myself up off the ground
Up off the ground

[Chorus]

[Chorus 2]

So pick me up off the ground
Then you'll see us out and around
Making tracks out of here
Just the kind that you wanna hear

Making tracks out of here
Just the kind that you wanna hear
Making tracks out of here
Just the kind that you wanna hear

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.
