Transcribed from a recording by "Ben Colder" (Sheb Wooley) at YouTube:
I JUST DON'T LOOK GOOD NAKED ANYMORE
Sheb Wooley, Dick Feller
1. I stepped out o' the shower an' I got a good look at myself.
Pot bellied, bald headed—man, I thought I's somebody else!
I caught my reflection in the mirror on the back o' the bathroom door.
I just don't look good naked anymore.
2. So I'm goin' upstairs and turn my bedroom mirror to the wall.
I hung it there back when I was trim an' tall.
I'd stand there an' smile an' flex an' strut until my arm got sore,
But I just don't look good naked anymore.
[BRIDGE] I used to go out with the girls. I loved 'em one an' all.
Now they don't get very close to me, afraid that I might fall.
3. I went to see my doctor for my annual medical exam.
Standin' there in the buff, when suddenly he said, "Man!"
I said, "What is it, doc? Some fatal disease? Man, I need to know the score."
He said, "No, you just don't look good naked anymore."
[BRIDGE] Me an' Mona had a dancin' style. The folks said it was unique.
Now it's only when we're back to back, we're dancin' cheek to cheek.
4. I went down to a nude beach for some seaside fun.
Stretched out in my birthday suit, soakin' up the sun.
Somebody yelled, "There's an ol' white whale washed up on the shore."
Sure, I just don't look good naked anymore.
[TAG] Yeah, my arches fell, my waist went to hell, an' my butt is draggin' the floor.
I just don't look good naked anymore.
