Half A Heart Tattoo Lyrics by Jennifer Hanson

Half A Heart Tattoo Lyrics

    She was touching up her makeup
    I was standing next in line
    I couldn't help but notice
    'Neath those powder room lights
    It was China red outlined in black
    On the left side of her shoulder
    In plain view
    I just had to ask,"Hey, what's with that half heart tattoo?"

    She glanced at me through the mirror
    And started to laugh
    She said,"I know this looks funny but there is another half
    And it's China red outlined in black on the right side of his shoulder
    Last I knew
    Yeah somewhere out there is a match to this
    Half a heart tattoo"

    "Well that last I heard some redhead
    Caught his eye in New Orleans
    And before that it was a blonde in Baton Rouge
    I know there's at least a dozen gals out sporting one of these
    Thinking that they're the only fool
    That he left with a half a heart tattoo"

    Well girl you get my sympathy
    I knew a guy like that
    I said,"You ain't gonna believe this"
    Then I pulled my jacket back
    "Yeah it's China red outlined in black on the left side of my shoulder
    Still fairly new
    I guess there's just a whole mess of us
    With a half a heart tattoo"

    Well the last I heard he moved in
    With some dancer from L.A.
    But I'm betting that won't last a week or two
    He loves them long enough to leave his mark
    And he's so good they never have a clue
    'Til they're stuck with a half a heart tattoo
    So ladies make sure that guy standing next to you
    Ain't wearing no half a heart tattoo
