The Girl with the Shamrock Tattoo

about

“It’s not hidden, but it’s not in plain view...” Written by our own Tom Feild, this is a love song about, well… we’re sure you’ll figure it out!

lyrics

© 2015 Tom Feild

Chorus:
The girl with the shamrock tattoo
The girl with the shamrock tattoo
It's not hidden, but it's not in plain view
The girl with the shamrock tattoo

She'd been thinking about it for some little time
To honor a loved one and her heritage line
It all came to pass on a St' Paddy's Day
The planets aligned in a perfect way
Chorus...

Buzz buzz buzz, pinch pinch pinch
The needle flew, the design was a cinch
The arist was quick, gentle and kind
It was over before he could change her mind
Chorus...

It's been a long day and she readies for bed
She sees the tattoo, smiles and shakes her head
A bittersweet thought that memories trigger
She thinks to herself "my next one will be bigger!"
Chorus...

The Out of Kilters Tucson, Arizona

Formed in 2009, we have played everything from the main stages at Tucson’s St Patrick’s Day and Celtic festivals to charity and other events across Arizona and New Mexico. We have three CDs under our belts, Down the Rocky Road, Get Yer Irish Up, and Hot Potatoes.

Though we feature some raucous tunes about drinking and fighting, we are really a bunch of happily sober pacifists!
