I saw a girl with a tattoo of someone she no longer loved. I started thinking about if Jesus had a tattoo

There’s a girl at the store with a tattoo on her neck, It’s the name of some boy she now wants to forget But if Jesus had a tattoo for every name he died for. The ink on his arms would weigh him down to the floor. Weigh him down to the floor,
Weigh him down to the floor
Weigh him down to the floor

When I see someone with a tattoo. I’m like can I talk at you
Please tell me it aint true that you that co co that you paid someone to do that you
Yah you sportin it, but that thing is permanent
And sure you like it now, but man holy cow you’ll have to wear that as a great great grandparent
And when I see your ink, I don’t know what to think
I’m sure your mom is great but do you really need a picture of her drawn on you in hot pink.
And please don’t miss me, but aint nobody sticking me
With a needle this long unless their name ends with a MD

There’s a girl at the store with a tattoo on her neck, It’s the name of some boy she now wants to forget But if Jesus had a tattoo for every name he died for. The ink on his arms would weigh him down to the floor. Weigh him down to the floor,
Weigh him down to the floor
Weigh him down to the floor

But if Jesus did have a tattoo, I bet it would be of you.
And he would wear it proud and say it loud and he tell everyone that he loves you.
And it makes me ponder, would he wear it as a badge of honor
he saved you from the pit of sin and hell or else you’d be a goner.
And I know he’d never regret it, and I know that he’d never forget it
Even if you took the love he offered you and you stepped on it and reject it.
If Jesus had a tattoo, of everyone he gave new life too
It wouldn’t have been the nails that keep it him to the cross it’d be the weight of the love for you

There’s a girl at the store with a tattoo on her neck, It’s the name of some boy she now wants to forget But if Jesus had a tattoo for every name he died for. The ink on his arms would weigh him down to the floor. Weigh him down to the floor,
Weigh him down to the floor
Weigh him down to the floor

Well there Peter, Bill and Max, sam, elvis and Ryan
Carl, Zachary, Paul, Alex, Gilbert and Brian
Sue, Sharon, Jeanne, Rebecca, Wanda and Mary
Rachael lisa martin amy Susie and carrie
Chelse and mary lue, cindy and betty sue
Teressa, poverty, charity just to name a few
Theirs jim, dale, bert, woodie, and Hoseuph
Ok that’s not a real name but I couldn’t think of anything that I could rhyme with Joseph

There’s a girl at the store with a tattoo on her neck, It’s the name of some boy she now wants to forget But if Jesus had a tattoo for every name he died for. The ink on his arms would weigh him down to the floor. Weigh him down to the floor,
Weigh him down to the floor
Weigh him down to the floor

So I offer up this metaphor, of his great love for us
And like the prophets of old I ask you to write it on your hearts
The irony of this song, hasn’t passes me I caught it
If my kids ask to get a tattoo. I’ll just lock them in the closet

There’s a girl at the store with a tattoo on her neck, It’s the name of some boy she now wants to forget But if Jesus had a tattoo for every name he died for. The ink on his arms would weigh him down to the floor. There’s a girl at the store with a tattoo on her neck, It’s the name of some boy she now wants to forget But if Jesus had a tattoo for every name he died for. The ink on his arms would weigh him down to the floor.
