In the bathtub takin' a shower
It was late I don't know the hour
But I heard a siren way cross the town
Looked at the door my house have burned down
Runnin' bare down the sidewalk
Neighbors seein' what they could see
Runnin' bare down the sidewalk
Hey lady don't look at me me
Went to the river to take me a swim
I hang my clothes upon a limb
Some girls come by you know what they done
They took my clothes and away they run
Runnin' bare down the creek bank
Them girls are playing trick on me
Runnin' bare and tryin' to catch 'em
Gotta get my clothes back don't they see
My girl friend called sais hey come around
Cause my husband he's out of town
Well after awhile he walked in
I said excuse me and I's gone again
Runnin' bare through the bushes
Chargin' bullets from tree to tree
Runnin' bare through the bushes
Runnin' Bare is what they call me
Runnin' bare through the bushes
Oooh they're comin' after me
Runnin' bare through the bushes
Runnin' Bare is what they call me
Runnin' Bare yeah Runnin' Bare
With the rowhide underwear...
