Fanny Mae Lyrics

Said I want somebody to tell me what's wrong with me
Said I want somebody to tell me what's wrong with me
I feel so much trouble, I got such a misery
Yes I do

And I can hear your name a ringin' all down the line
I can hear your name a ringin' all down the line
I wanna know do you love me
or am I just wasting my time
I wonder

[Chorus]
Fannie Mae, baby, won't you please come home
Fannie Mae, baby, won't you please come home
Let the seventh debt I cover
I don't wanna be alone

I know, whoa, poor me
I know, whoa, poor me
Said my heart is through with trouble
It's such an aching misery

[Chorus: x2]

Fannie Mae
Fannie Mae
Fannie Mae

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.
