Dropkick Murphys Rose Tattoo

The pictures tell the story This life has many shades I d wake up every morning and before I d start each day I d take a drag from last night s cigarette That smoldered in it s tray Down a little something and then be on my way I traveled far and wide And laid this head in many ports I was guided by a compass I saw beauty to the north I drew the tales of many lives And wore the faces of my own I had these memories all around me So I wouldn t be alone Some may be from showing up Others are from growing up Sometimes I was so messed up and didn t have a clue I ain t winning no one over I wear it just for you I ve got your name written here In a rose tattoo In a rose tattoo In a rose tattoo I ve got your name written here In a rose tattoo
