Lyrics New Tattoo - Saving Abel

New Tattoo

Sometime in the summer of '96
I was off on a road trip
A couple hundred bucks and a case of beer
Outside Panama City limits is where it all begins
2:00 A.M., I saw hazard lights
Appeared to be a dame distressed in the night
She was 5'6″ and, damn, she was built
I slammed on the brakes and got sideways and told her to get in
She said, «Where you headed, to the city?»
I said, «Yeah!
I’m gonna have some fun»
She tossed her hair back in confidence
And said, «Mind if I come?»
Two days later, we ain’t left the room
Did all in there that we could think to do
I could see she was restless, so we hit the town
Ended up at a place where the windows read:
«Tattoos, piercings, belly rings here»
«Tattoos, piercings, belly rings here»
Into the back she went and disappeared
Reappeared an hour late cheesing ear to ear
I thought, «Hell, I need to try and get back there»
When she unzipped her pants and said, «Looky here
I got a brand new tattoo
All the colors in it remind me of you
I got a brand new tattoo
All the colors in it remind me of you
The blue is for the bruise that you left in my heart
And the red is for the color we’re 'bout to paint this town
Ooh, I gotta new tattoo"
One week passed;
woke up a day late for work
I found my goodtime gone and she took my shirt
Drove by all the places that we had been
There was one where the windows read:
«Tattoos, piercings, belly rings here»
«Tattoos, piercings, belly rings here»
Into the back I went and disappeared
Reappeared an hour later cheesing ear to ear
I got a brand new tattoo
All the colors in it remind me of you
I got a brand new tattoo
All the colors in it remind me of you
The blue is for the bruise that you left in my heart
And the red is for the color we’re 'bout to paint this town
Oooh I gotta new tattoo
And I cannot forget
That smile when she said
I got a brand new tattoo
All the colors in it remind me of you
I got a brand new tattoo
All the colors in it remind me of you
The blue is for the bruise that you left in my heart
And the red is for the color we’re 'bout to paint this town
Oooh I gotta new tattoo
New tattoo!
(I got a brand new tattoo
And all the colors in it remind me of you)
New tattoo!
(«Tattoos, piercings, belly rings here»)
