Tattoo'd Lady

Transposer:

Tattoo'd Lady, Bearded baby, They're my family. When I was lonely, Something told me, where, I could always be. Where I could, Wish for pennies, If we had any. You'd meet me down, At the shooting gallery. Yes I'm a, Fair ground baby. Wonder what made me, Fall for the pearly queen. I spent my youth, Under canvas roof, As I roamed from town to town. I'm not fooling, When I say I got no schoolin', Never like the class bell sound. From the caravan, I hear the fairground band, Sounding good as they can be. You know I can't be found, But if you look around, Tomorrow we'll be gone by dawn. Alright... (Instrumental) Now hear it on the loud speaker say, The fire eater is a real fine sight to see, Yeah he's a death cheater, Some kind of central heater, Be sure to save a seat for me. Let me tell you 'bout wicked Sadie, She's no baby, The law came, And tried to close her sideshow down. But soon she had the D.A. cheering, The police chief wearing, Her garter for a crown. I spent my youth, Under canvas roof, As I roamed from town to town. I'm not fooling, When I say I got no schoolin', Never like the class bell sound. From the caravan, I hear the fairground band, Sounding good as they can be. You know I can't be found, But if you look around, Tomorrow we'll be gone by dawn. Tattoo'd Lady, Bearded baby, They're my family. When I was lonely, Something told me, where, I could always be. Where I could, Wish for pennies, If we had any. You'd meet me down, At the shooting gallery. Yes I'm a, Fair ground baby. Wonder what made me, Fall for the pearly queen. (Instrumental)

La chanson évoque la nostalgie d'une vie vagabonde, pleine de couleurs et de personnages excentriques. Elle raconte l'histoire d'une personne qui trouve sa place parmi les forains, avec des figures familières comme une dame tatouée et un bébé barbu qui représentent sa famille choisie. Dans ce monde itinérant, l'auteur parle de ses souvenirs d'enfance, de la liberté et de l'évasion, tout en révélant un sentiment de mélancolie lorsqu'il évoque les défis de la vie sur la route. Le contexte nous plonge dans l'univers des fêtes foraines, où la musique, les spectacles et les personnages uniques font partie intégrante de l'expérience. C'est un monde où l'on vit au jour le jour, entre joies simples et luttes contre les jugements extérieurs, illustrant la beauté et la complexité de cette vie hors des normes habituelles.
