Lyr ADD: I Just Don't Look Good Naked Anymore

I JUST DON'T LOOK GOOD NAKED ANYMORE
Sheb Wooley, Richard Dean Feller

I stepped out of the shower and caught a glimpse of myself:
Bald headed, pot bellied. I thought it was somebody else.
Got a look at myself in the mirror on the bathroom door.
I just don't look good naked anymore.

I went upstairs, turned the mirror to the bathroom wall.
I hung it there when I was trim and tall.
I used to grin and flex and strut 'til my arms got sore,
But I just don't look good naked anymore.

I used to go out with the girls. I loved them, one and all.
Now, they don't get too close to me, afraid that I might fall.

I went to my doctor for my annual medical exam,
Standing there in the buff, when, suddenly, he said, "Man!"
I said, "What is it doc? Some fatal disease? I gotta know the score."
"No, you just don't look good naked anymore."

Mona and me we had a dancing style; folks said it was unique.
Now, it's only when we're back to back, we're dancing cheek to cheek.

I went to that nude beach to have a little seaside fun,
Stretched out in my birthday suit, soaking up the sun.
Someone said, "There's an old white whale, washed up on the shore!"
I just don't look good naked anymore.

My arches fell, my waist went to hell, my butt drags on the floor,
I just don't look good naked anymore.

K.M.

Generous of you to post this, Kendall. I can hear a thousand keyboards clicking away as Mudcatters copy and past those all too graphic lyrics into their file folders.;-)

Much obliged, Captain! One of my favorites, too!

As soon as i get the chords figgered out, I'll have a go at it. Isn't that an old C&W tune? Jimmy Rodgers or Hank Williams, perhaps?

First off, it is not mine. It waqs written by Sheb Wooley (Rawhide) (Purple People Eater) and bad guy in High Noon. Secondly, I always share what I have discovered because I'm always learning new ones. And, no, Charlie, that's the way I learned it, and it's all there.

You'll just have to invite the good Captain to come out and expose this song. Try money, although I understand he's also partial to llmas.

Cheerily,

not because every story needs a happy ending, and with respect to Sheb Wooley, here's a last verse:

Mona, she's still hot to me, though somewhat rearranged,
Now we've figured a solution to get us through this change,
Everything we were's still there, not where it was, and more,
But we hide each other's glasses, and look good naked as before.

Some Spamster refreshed this thread, so I deleted his message and sent him off to NeverNeverLand. Why is it, though, that I think of Kendall every time I hear mention of this song? It may forever be associated with him. Maybe it should be his theme song. Hope had "Thanks for the Memories." Dinah Shore had "See the USA in YOur Chevrolet." Dean Martin had "Memories Are Made of This." Tennessee Ernie Ford had "Sixteen Tons."
And Kendall Morse has "I Don't Look Good Naked Anymore."

Don't look good naked anymore?

That's OK--

Larry Java, who hosts the country music jam at Log Cabin Hollow Resort, near Webster, Wisconsin, every Friday and Saturday night through the summer, has been singing this song regularly lately.

That's him in the yellow shirt in the background in the bottom picture, and in the red shirt and jean jacket in the picture just above it.

I don't know his exact age, but I'd guess 70+. He's pretty trim. I've heard his female fans say, it's a good song, but it's not true!

Maybe it should be sung in conjunction with this one?

Sometimes, I wish Kendall would stop bringing up the image of himself naked.....
It pains the imagination.
