you painted up your lips
ruby are you contemplating
and rolled and curled your tinted hair
going out somewhere the shadow on the wall tells me the sun ist going down
it wasn't me who started
oh ruby, don't take your love to town
that old crazy asian war but I was proud to go
and do my patriotic chore and . yes it's true, that I'm not the man I used to be oh ruby, I still need some company
it's hard to love a man whose legs
are bent and paralyzed
and the wants and the needs
but it won't be long of a woman your age . ruby I realize
oh ruby, don't take your love to town
I've heard them say until I'm not around
she's leaving now the way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before
'cause I just heard the slamming of the door
and if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground oh ruby, don't take your love to town
oh ruby, for god's sake . turn around.
