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
