I'm gonna tell you a little story now
About something that happened a long time ago
You see I was playing this a bar
I was putting on a show
I'll tell ya, something bad happened that night
You see these two guys, got into a lethal fight
They were both carrying pistols
Which they surely knew how to use
They fighting over someone
The girl with the broken heart tattoo
Well, she knew her way around
And she knew it too
She'd been playing both of these fellas
She knew exactly what they were gonna do
Ended up with all their cash
And the keys to both their cars
Let me tell ya how it went down
That night in the bar
Earlier on that evening
I watched her preparing
She looked all the fellas up and down
Just to see what they were wearing
Eventually she settled on these two
In designer suits and shoes
I could tell this girl was gonna be trouble
The girl with the broken heart tattoo
One by one
She gave each man a chance
And they didn't know
That girl had magic hands
And all of you with dirty minds
She wasn't doing what you were thinking
She was stealing their wallets
Right in front of them, right while they were drinking
And she turned them against each other
With some carefully chosen words
And she smoothly walked out the door
With the loot stuffed in her purse
Now those two cats pulled their pistols
And SHOT EACH OTHER though and through
And I never saw that woman again
The girl with the broken heart tattoo
