Chewin' Mama Blues Lyrics

Well, I know my days are numbered
And I know I'm livin' fast
I've got a mellow man who loves me
And mellow whiskey in my glass
So I'll just stick around
And wait for the time to pass

Yes, I know I'm not good lookin'
But I'll put you in your place
No, I know I'm not good lookin'
But I'll put you in your place
You can't tell me what I'm likin'
By just lookin' at my face

I've got a secret way of lovin'
And I own the copyright
I'm gonna put it on the market
And do all my business right
I know my man is crooked
And I know my whiskey's straight
And I know that man can send me
For he feels just like a snake

Yes, I'll thrill you, baby
I can really satisfy your soul
Yes, I'll really thrill you, baby
I can satisfy your soul
I've got a secret way of lovin'
And it never has been told

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.
