Lyrics

The Ballad of Naked Man

[Chorus]

Naked man, Naked man

Passing through naked land

Naked man, Naked man

In the sand, where is your hand?

Naked man, Naked man

Please go back to naked land

Naked isn't a sometime thing

Naked is an all-time thing

It's not the size of the dog in the naked

It's the size of the naked in the dog

Naked on a Monday

Naked all year long

Naked is never right

Naked is always wrong

So get the hell away from me

You god-damned naked man

Go the fuck away from me

Back to naked land

[Chorus]

Naked man, Naked man

Passing through naked land

Naked man, Naked man

In the sand, where is your hand?

Naked man, Naked man

Please go back to naked land

Naked man in Denver

Naked gasoline

Naked isn't dirty

Naked isn't clean

Naked isn't fun

Naked isn't nice

Naked lasts forever

So roll those naked dice

Naked in the morning

Naked all night long

So come on, let's make it naked
