 twice
When  I was a young  boy I sniffed  a lot of glue
Mom  sent me to rehab,  they told  me what to do
 We didn't  have much money;  the lord  picked up the tab
 They made  me write him love  songs, sitting  in my room
Now  I just drink whiskey  and drive  around my friends
Get  a haircut, get  a job, maybe  born again
 And if  you're living badly,  we'll tell  you how to live
 Dead, drunk, and nak---ed,  Dead, drunk, and nak---ed
 If you're out there listening, I just want you to know
 I been doing just fine, psychiatrists tell me so
 My scars are patched up; my arms have almost healed
 My demons almost tranquilized, my pains almost killed
 Me and old Jack Daniel's, become the best of friends
 We got all them Baptist's to die for our sins
 I know the lord is coming, the South will rise again
 (Dead, drunk, and naked)
 Daddy used to tell me, everything comes down
 To what they say about you when you're not around
 And I wish that he was here now, I'm sure he would be proud
 No one talks about me now, the voices are too loud
 So if you come to see me, I'm sure you'll be impressed
 By how well I'm behaving and how well I'm dressed
 If you come to see me, hope you're coming soon
 Dead, drunk, and naked, dead, drunk and naked
 Dead, drunk, and naked
