Tattoo Lyrics

Whatever you think of me I'm still your friend

So other than nothin' what's new

The water's still flowin' through the rose on my skin

This here tattoo is for you

The boys at the parlor downtown

Didn't waste anytime a-puttin' it down

Time has been wastin' away I can see it

Go sailin' on by as it slips through my fingers

The bow and the wave never wait for tomorrow

They just keep on rollin' as straight as an arrow, good night

Girl of my dreams you get better each day

I wish I could see you somehow

Girls that I love is there no other way

This here tattoo is for now

I'd been out drinkin' all day

I got carried away at the parlor last night

This summer rose is for you it's no wonder

I bothered to wander back into the parlor

It's red and in bloom and it's more than one color

It lives on forever for just a few dollars, good night

Whatever you think of me I'm still your friend

So baby whatever you do

Now that it's taken its permanent home

This here tattoo is for you

The boys at the parlor downtown

Didn't waste any time a-puttin' it down

Time has been wastin' away, you know time doesn't

Wait for nobody to find what they're after

It just keeps on rolling on down the deep canyons

And through the green meadows into the broad ocean, good night

Whatever you think of me I'm still your friend

So other than nothin' what's new

The water's still flowing through the rose on my skin

This here tattoo is for you

The water's still flowin through the rose on my skin

This here tattoo is for you
