1. An idiom referring to a situation where you're screwed no matter what you do; if you're literally holding a tiger by the tail, it won't attack you - until you let go of its tail. But you have to let go in order to run from it, and it WILL chase you down. 2. A song by country singer "Buck" Owens. Arguably his signature song.
