Andy Griggs Tattoo Rose Lyrics

Tattoo Rose Lyrics

She said, I had friend

And she was gigglin', my name is Caroline

But those who know me best call me

Tattoo Rose



And that got me wonderin'

Which pretty end she had it inked in

Forbidden, well hidden

Underneath her clothes



And I asked, where is your little secret?

She said, you know I keep it



Just a little south of my Mason-Dixon tan line

This yellow rose of Texas, that's right

Has never seen the sunshine



Since that spring break down in Key West

Oh, what a beautiful canvas

For a little tattoo rose



The way she moved it

And grooved it to the music

Was soakin' up my mind

And getting me high



And I said, I gotta know

Just how low it really goes

Hey baby, just maybe

You could show me sometime



She said, don't think so, honey

Boy, you should get so lucky



Just a little south of my Mason-Dixon tan line

This yellow rose of Texas, that's right

Has never seen the sunshine



Since that spring break down in Key West

Oh, what a beautiful canvas

For a little tattoo rose



Where is your little secret

She said, you know I keep it



Just a little south of my Mason-Dixon tan line

This yellow rose of Texas, that's right

Has never seen the sunshine



Since that spring break down in Key West

Oh, what a beautiful canvas

For a little tattoo rose



Yeah, tattoo rose

I gotta see that tattoo
