Lydia, the Tattooed Lady Lyrics by Rowlf the Dog

Ol’ Brown Ears is Back

1993

[Verse 1]
Lydia, oh Lydia, say, have you met Lydia
Lydia, the Tattooed Lady?
She has eyes that folks adore so
And a torso even moreso
Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopedia
Oh Lydia, the Queen of Tattoo
On her back is the Battle of Waterloo
Beside it the Wreck of the Hesperus, too
And proudly above wave the red, white and blue
You can learn a lot from Lydia!
[Chorus]
La-dee-da, la-da-dum
La-dee-da, ah-da-dum
La-da-dum, dum-doo-dum
Umm-mm-mm
[Bridge]
She can give you a view of the world in tattoo
If you step up and tell her where
For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paris
Or Washington crossing thе Delaware
[Chorus]
La-dee-da, la-da-dum
La-dee-ooh, doo-doo-ee
[Verse 2]
Lydia, oh Lydia, say, have you mеt Lydia
Lydia, the Tattooed Lady?
When her muscles start relaxin'
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson
Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia
Lydia, the champ of them all
She once swept an admiral clear off his feet
The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat
And now the old boy’s in command of the fleet
For he went and married Lydia!
