Lyrics
The Naked Truth by Joel Mabus [a new version appears on the Retold album] Truth and Falsehood were the best of friends. That's the way this little story begins. Way back yonder when the world was young, These two girls went out to have some fun, [chorus:] And that's the naked truth - That's the naked truth - That's the naked truth - You know I wouldn't lie to you. You could always tell Truth by the dress she wore - A long, flowing gown, way down to the floor, Silky, silky, pearly white, A little lace collar that she buttoned up tight, And that's the naked truth... Falsehood, on the other hand, she wore a dress of red - A tight, sassy little number, turn your head. Fishnet stockings and the high heel pumps, A slit up the side make a dead man jump, And that's the naked truth... Now these two good-lookin', fun-lovin' gals - ( Uh, did I mention they were the best of pals? Yeah.) They decided to go skinny dippin' one day - They stripped buff naked and they swam away. And that's the naked truth... That's when Falsehood cooked up her wicked idea: Said, "Truth, honey, you just keep swimmin' , now, hear? I'm gonna sit up on the beach and get a little sun." Uh-huh, that's how the trouble begun. And that's the naked truth... You see, Falsehood put on that dress of white. She buttoned it up, buttoned it up, buttoned it up tight. She laughed to herself, she said, "Wait 'til people see - They'll think it's Truth comin', and it's gonna be me!" And that's the naked truth... Well truth come out of the water drippin' wet. Took one look at falsehood, -- "Is this the thanks I get? I take off my dress for one tiny little minute, I turn around and there's my best friend in it!" And that's the naked truth... Falsehood said, "You don't get the joke, here's the set-up I wear your clothes, you get into my get-up." Truth said, "Uh-Uh, girl, that won't do. I'd rather go naked than be mistaken for you!" And that's the naked truth, That's the naked truth, That's the naked truth, You know I wouldn't lie to you. And that's the way it is to this very day - Something looks a little too good, you better just walk away, 'Cause a pretty little dress can cover up a lie, But Truth goes naked - she's got nothin' to hide. That's the naked truth - warts and all - That's the naked truth - a little lumpy these days , but She's the naked truth - you can tell her coming or going - That's the naked truth - Yeah, that's the naked truth - You know I wouldn't lie - I wouldn't lie to you.
