Skeets McDonald with Johnny White and His Rhythm performed "The Tattooed Lady"
[F] Once I [Bb] married a tattooed [F] lady, (well tell me about her Skeets) it was on a [G7] cold and winter [C7] day. [F] And tattooed [Bb] all around her [F] body (what was that?) was the [G7] map of the good old US[C]A. [Bb] And every night before I'd go to [F] sleep, (what’d ya do Skeets?) I'd [G7] jerk down the quilt and I'd take a [C] peep. [NC] But good gracious alive!Upon her [F] leg was Minne[G]sota, On her [C7] shoulder Tennes[F]see. And tattooed [Bb] on her back was good old [F] Rackensack, the [G7] place where I long to [C] be. [C7] Upon her [F] (wolf whistle) was West Vir[G7]ginnie, Through them [C] hills I did love to [F] roam. When I [Bb] saw the the moonlight on her Missi[F]ssippi That's when I [G] recognized my [G] home sweet [C] home. [F]Instrumental of a verseUpon her [F] leg was Minne[G]sota, On her [C7] shoulder Tennes[F]see. And tattooed [Bb] on her back was good old [F] Rackensack, the [G7] place where I long to [C7] be. Upon her [F] (wolf whistle) was West Vir[G7]ginnie, Through them [C] hills I did love to [F] roam around. When I [Bb] saw the the moonlight on her Missi[F]ssippi That's when I [G] recognized my [G] home sweet [F] home.That's when I [G] recognized my [G] home sweet [F] home.
