Andrea Swift has supported her daughter Taylor's music over the years.

"She thinks that that song is about superstitions, popular superstitions, which, which it absolutely is," she explained. "That's the joy of the double entendre. That song, you could read that song for people and it just goes right over their head. That song you, you see in that song what you wanna see in that song."

In "Wood," Taylor sings, "Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me and opened my еyes / Redwood tree, it ain't hard to see / His love was thе key that opened my thighs."

The Grammy Award winner even included a cheeky reference to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end's podcast, "New Heights": "New Heights (New Heights)/ of manhood (Manhood)/ I ain't got to knock on wood (Ah) / All of that b------, wishing on a falling star."

The football star, 36, reportedly heard the track beforehand and didn't mind his woman calling out his "manhood."

"He got the heads-up," an insider confirmed to gossip columnist Rob Shuter on his Substack page. "Taylor played him the song before the album dropped — and he loved it. What guy wouldn’t? It’s basically a love letter to his… well, wood."

Taylor Swift's 'Wood' is reportedly about Travis Kelce.

During Monday's radio show interview, Taylor explained why lyrics from The Life of a Showgirl are more explicit than her past releases.

"If it improves the intensity of the moment or if, in terms of syllables or you just consonance and vowels, if to me it pops off more, you know, there are certain lyrics that just bounce more," she expressed. "Or if it feels like it's a part of the vernacular of how that character that I'm kind of cosplaying in that song would speak. Like, there are a lot of different reasons you choose to throw in a swear word or like a certain phrase or a sort of alliteration or whatever. But that's what I love so much about songwriting is those, those decisions are fun and oftentimes hilarious to make."
