Used to be a young gull , out on the hard streets Gettin' high on crystal, drinking scotch and smoking weed Daddy's wish used to be nothing less than my command Took a switch to my back, nailed me to a cross, both hands Mamma couldn't give me, the thing a young boy needs Instead of Mamma suffering, she was smart enough to leave Spend my life fighting, trying to stay free from trials and tribulations and the state penitentiary Hustled pool, really looking cool just making both ends meet Until that day I saw you walking down Blue Angel street The sweetest lies are lily white coming from your lips You brush away all my pain with a lazy finger tip It moves my heart just watching, the way you walk so smooth You save me from an evil fate, you steal away my blues Lyin' here in your arms, I don't need more proof Lyin' here safe and warm, it's just the naked truth This man loves you, this man loves you This man loves you, this man loves you That's the naked truth It's the naked truth Going down that graveyard spiral, there was nothing I could do Life treatin' me much harder, than a mean old corkscrew Lyin' here in your arms, I don't need more proof Lyin' here safe and warm, it's just the naked truth This man loves you, this man loves you this man loves you, this man loves you...
