Dead, Drunk, And Naked Lyrics - Southern Rock Opera - Drive By Truckers

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 naked 

Dead, drunk, and naked 

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 

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 

And if you come to see me, hope you're coming soon 

Dead, drunk and naked 

Dead, drunk and naked 

Dead, drunk and naked
