(Tom Waits)



Well the time will come

When the wind will shout

All stripped down

All stripped down

And all the sinners know

What I'm talking about

All stripped down

All stripped down

When all the creatures of the world

Are gonna line up at the gate



And you better be on time

And you better not be late

All stripped

All stripped down



Well you know in your heart

What you gotta bring

All stripped down

All stripped down

No big mink coat

No diamond ring

All stripped down

All stripped down



Well take off your paint

Take off your rouge

All stripped down

All stripped down

Let your backbone flip

ANd let your spirit shine through

I want you all stripped

All stripped

All stripped down



All the men we got

Well they're goin' down the drain

All stripped down

All stripped down

And when I see your sadness

On a river of shame

All stripped down

All stripped down



You got to raise up

Bot the quick and the dead

All stripped down

All stripped down

With no shoes on your feet

No hat on your head

I want you all stripped down

All stripped

All stripped down



Ain't nothin' in my heart

But fire for you

All stripped down

All stripped down

With my rainy hammer

And a heart that's true

I want you all stripped

All stripped

All stripped down
