Ghetto Mechanic Lyrics

I can pick your locks
Put you up on blocks
Strip you down for parts
Mega-amp jump start

But when you call on me
Best be ready to pay my fee
You only get one chance to do right by me

It's always drive, drive drive
Got to move to survive
That's the law of the ghetto
Know when to stay and when to go

But when you call on me
Best be ready to pay my fee
You only get one chace to do right by me
It's me you'll owe
It's me you'll owe
So don't owe me
Don't even try to do something to make me feel

Well I'm the ghetto mechanic
There's no need for panic
I drink malt liquor for kicks
There ain't no problem I can't fix

But when you call on me
Best be ready to pay my fee
You only get one chance to do right by me
It's me you'll owe
It's me you'll owe
So don't owe me
Don't even try to do something to make me feel

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.
