Youve painted up your lips And rolled and curled your tinted hair Ruby are you contemplating Going out somewhere The shadow on the wall Tells me the sun is going down Oh ruby Dont take your love to town It wasnt me That started that old crazy asian war But I was proud to go And do my patriotic chore And yes, its true that Im not the man I used to be Oh, ruby I still need some company Its hard to love a man Whose legs are bent and paralysed And the wants and the needs of a woman your age Ruby I realize, But it wont be long Ive heard them say until I not around Oh ruby Dont take your love to town Shes leaving now cause I just heard the slamming of the door The way I know Ive heard it Some 100 times before And if I could move Id get my gun And put her in the ground Oh ruby Dont take your love to town Oh ruby for gods sake turn around
