Shemekia Copeland - Ain't Gonna Be Your Tattoo Lyrics

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 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 s young
but I'm feelin' old
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
right into Reno
He got us a room
above the casino
The music was loud
and the drinks were cheap
But I know 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
