You've painted up your lips
and rolled and curled
your tinted hair
Ruby are you contemplating
going out somewhere
The shadows on the wall
tell me the sun is going down
Oh Ruby,
don't take your love to town
It wasn't me who started
that old crazy Asian war
But I was proud to go
and do my patriotic chore
Yes I know it's true
I'm not the man I used to be
0h Ruby,
I still need some company
It's hard to love a man
who's legs are bent and
paralysed
And the wants and the needs
of a woman your age oh,
Ruby
I realise
But it wont be long
I've heard them say,
untill I'm not around
Oh Ruby
don't take your love to town
She's leaving now 'cause I've
just heard the
slamming of the door
The way I know I've heard it
slam one hundred
times before
And if I could move I'd take
my gun and put her in the
ground
Oh Ruby
don't take your love to town
Oh Ruby
for God's sakes, turn around
