Subject: RE: That Old Tattooed Lady
Here is the Skeets McDonald lyrics (My father has sung this song to me for over 45 years!) Catchy little tune....
Once I married a tattooed lady Twas on one dark and windy day And tattooed all around her body Was a map of the good ol' USA And every night before I'd go to sleep I'd jerk back the covers and I'd take a peek: (whatya see Skeet?) {spoken} Upon her leg was Minnesota, On her knee was Tennessee, And tattooed on her back Was good old Rackensack The place where I long to be. And on her (wolf whistle) was West Virginia Those hills I love to roam; But when I saw the moonlight on her Mississippi That's when I recognized my home sweet home.
