Hear That Engine Moan Lyrics

It's been quite some time
Since I've had a tune-up or a drive
And I doubt if that
A change in oil will get me through the night
Will get me through the night

My gauge is on empty
Seems like almost every single day
And I wonder
Just how many miles will keep me sane
Miles will keep me sane

Real gone
Yeah I feel my soul's alone
And I wanna make it home
But I hear that engine moan

Real gone
Yeah I feel my soul's alone
And I wanna make it home
But I hear that engine moan

Cruisin' down the highway
Thirteen's always draggin' on my tail
In my rearview
Misery and memories make me wail
Memories make me wail

Real gone
Yeah, I feel my soul's alone
And I wanna make it home
But I hear that engine moan

Real gone
Yeah, I feel my soul's alone
And I wanna make it home
But I hear that engine moan

Hear that engine moan
Hear that engine moan
Hear that engine moan
Hear that engine moan

It's been quite some time
Since I've had a tune-up or a drive
And I doubt if that
A change in oil will get me through the night
Will get me through the night

Real gone
Yeah, I feel my soul's alone
And I wanna make it home
But I hear that engine moan

Real gone
Yeah, I feel my soul's alone
And I wanna make it home
But I hear that engine moan

Hear that engine moan
Hear that engine moan
Hear that engine moan
Hear that engine moan

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.
