Ruby (Don't Take Your Love To Town) - Radio Edit
You have painted up your lips
And rolled your greasy tinted hair
Ruby are you contemplating
Going out somewhere
The shadow on the wall
Tells me the sun is going down
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
It wasn't me
Who started out that crazy Irish war
But I was proud to do
My patriotic chore
And I know Ruby
That I'm not the man I used to be
Oh, Ruby
I still need your 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 won't be long i've heard them say until I not around
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
She's leaving now cause
I just heard the slamming of the door
The way I know I've heard it slam
100 times or more
If I could move I've get my gun
And shot her in the ground
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
Oh Ruby
For God's sake turn around
And rolled your greasy tinted hair
Ruby are you contemplating
Going out somewhere
The shadow on the wall
Tells me the sun is going down
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
It wasn't me
Who started out that crazy Irish war
But I was proud to do
My patriotic chore
And I know Ruby
That I'm not the man I used to be
Oh, Ruby
I still need your 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 won't be long i've heard them say until I not around
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
She's leaving now cause
I just heard the slamming of the door
The way I know I've heard it slam
100 times or more
If I could move I've get my gun
And shot her in the ground
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
Oh Ruby
For God's sake turn around
