Lyrics: Andy Griggs. Tattoo Rose.

She said howdy friend
As she was gigglin', my name is Caroline
But those who know me best call me
Tattoo rose
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 smokin' up my mind and gettin' me high
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


I gotta see that tattoo

You know woman, I gotta see that tattoo.
