Ain't Gonna Be Your Tattoo Songtext
von Shemekia Copeland

Just what I said wrong, is anybody′s guess?
But the bruise on my face was as blue as my dress
Broken bottle on the table, broken lamp on the floor
Couple thousand miles from the bed to the door

Lipstick on his cheek from my last kiss
Took a ten from his wallet, left the maid a tip

Ain't gonna be your tattoo
Ain′t gonna be your tattoo
End up faded and blue
Ain't gonna be your tattoo

Slipped out of the room, tryin' not to be seen
Only sound, old ice machine
I was feeling so scared, nowhere to go
How did my life end up so low

They say 30′s young, but I′m feelin' older
Guess that′s when the night got even cold


Ain't gonna be your tattoo
Ain′t gonna be your tattoo
End up faded and blue
Ain't gonna be your tattoo

Ain′t gonna be your tattoo
Ain't gonna be your tattoo
End up faded and blue
Ain't gonna be your tattoo

Said, I looked so pretty on his arm
Same one he raised to do me harm

Well, I picked up a ride, riding to Reno
He got us a room above the casino
The music was loud and the drinks were cheap
But I knew right away, I wasn′t getting no sleep

Then I got the fear all over again
When I saw all that drawing all over his skin

Ain′t gonna be your tattoo
Ain't gonna be your tattoo
End up faded and blue
Ain′t gonna be your tattoo


Ain't gonna be your tattoo
Ain′t gonna be your tattoo
End up faded and blue
Ain't gonna be your tattoo
Yeah, yeah

Ain′t gonna be your tattoo
Ain't gonna be your tattoo, no
End up faded and blue
Ain't gonna be your tattoo
Ain′t gonna be your tattoo
