A friend challenged me to write a song using the lyric
"C'mon baby, C'mon. Let me show you my tattoo."
Which, of course, is a line from the Allman Brother's "I'm No Angel"
So I've been picking at something and this is what I got so far.
My lyrics are:
Yeah, I was sixteen-
And she was twenty two
She lived in the loft upstairs
And she would call me-
For some "Honey-Do's"
When she couldn't do 'em for herself
It was an evening-
I saw her coming in
As she was headed home
And it was early-
For a date to end
and to be all alone-
I noticed something different on the back of her leg
A trail of stars and dolphins and it took my breath
That's when she caught me looking and she cocked her head-
She turned to me and said-
C'mon baby, c'mon
And let me show you my tattoo-
Then she lifted up her skirt
but stopped before I seen it all-
Now, if you wanna see the rest-
there ain't much you have ta do-
I took her by the hand
and we slipped into her room
And then for two weeks
Or maybe three
She really played it straight
When she called me
For those little things
You know I couldn't wait
Sometimes I would meet her at the top of the stairs
A look in her eye and a flick of her hair
She'd checked to see who's looking but I didn't care
And she'd say with a dare-
C'mon baby, c'mon
And let me show you my tattoo-
Then she lifted up her skirt
but stopped before I seen it all-
Now, if you wanna see the rest-
there ain't much you have ta do-
I took her by the hand
and we slipped into her room
This is an mp3 of what I got so far- THIS IS VERY ROUGH- Haven't been working with this as I have panels to build but I thought I would put it up as I'm sure my panel work is boring ya'll.
