Tattoos Blues Corb Lund

[Chorus]
I got the tattoos blues, the tattoos blues
I shoulda thought things through first
My tattoos are blue, I got the tattoos blues
But hey I got no regerts

So you're feeling creative and a bit illustrative
And wondering just what to do
Well march yourself down to the parlour around
The next corner and get a tattoo

Your options are endless, just have the apprentice
Show his previous work
Get yourself an eyepopper, a real job stopper
Sit down in the chair, you poor jerk

For a scratcher with talent the rainbow's your palette
Any colour or shade, any hue
And until you are dead your art will turn heads
And eventually also turn blue

[Chorus]
I got the tattoos blues, the tattoos blues
I shoulda thought things through first
My tattoos are blue, I got the tattoos blues
But hey I got no regerts
