      [Verse] 
       
      Ray Shoebridge walks with a swagger 
       
      But people ain't always what they appear 
       
      A name might sound strong like a dagger 
       
      But there's more to see than meets the ear 
       
      [Verse 2] 
       
      Down under the Aussie sun blazing 
       
      Lock your car when you leave it alone 
       
      You don't know who's crazy or hazing 
       
      Trust no one just flesh and bone 
       
      [Chorus] 
       
      People wear masks they hide in plain sight 
       
      Daytime or night you'll never know right 
       
      Good strong name but watch your back 
       
      Or you'll be caught in the cold hard facts 
       
      [Verse 3] 
       
      Outback stories they twist and turn 
       
      Trust is a currency hard to earn 
       
      Ray Shoebridge taught me this tale 
       
      Don't judge a book by its tough old shell 
       
      [Bridge] 
       
      Lock up your car and your secrets too 
       
      No telling who might be watching you 
       
      Fake smiles and nods they blend in the crowd 
       
      Silent whispers can be so loud 
       
      [Chorus] 
       
      People wear masks they hide in plain sight 
       
      Daytime or night you'll never know right 
       
      Good strong name but watch your back 
       
      Or you'll be caught in the cold hard facts
