Naked Man

[Verse 1]
Old lady lost in the city
In the middle of a cold, cold night
It was fourteen below and the wind starts to blow
There wasn't a boy scout in sight

[Verse 2]
Pull down the shades 'cause he's comin'
Turn out the lights 'cause he's here
Runnin' down the street through the snow and the sleet
On the coldest night of the year

[Chorus]
Beware, beware, beware of the naked man

[Verse 3]
Old lady head up toward Broad Street
Shufflin' uptown against the wind
She started to cry, wiped a tear from her eyes
Looked back to see where she had been

[Verse 4]
Old lady stand on the corner
With a purse in her hand
She does not know but in a minute or so
She will be robbed by a naked man

[Chorus]
Beware, beware, beware of the naked man
Beware, beware, beware of the naked man

[Verse 5]
Old lady lean against a lamppost
Starin' down at the ground on which she stand
She looked up and screamed, in the lamplight's beam
There— *Laughter*

[Bridge]
"They found out about my sister, they kicked me out of the Navy
They would have strung me up if they could
I tried to explain we were both of us lazy
We're doing the best we could"

[Verse 6]
Well, he faked to the left, and he faked to the right
And he pursed the snatch from her hand
"Someone stop me," he cried as he faded from sight
"Won't nobody help a naked man, oh Lord?"
"Won't nobody help a naked man?"

[Chorus]
Beware, beware, beware of the naked man
Beware, beware, beware of the naked man
