Dear Ruby Lyrics


Ruby, My Dear
Hold back that tear
I know he's gone
Your love has flown
You are all alone
I know you cry
There's no reply
Pain lingers on
It doesn't go
‘Cause you'll say so
One day he came to you
Made the music play
His way
You said you'd rather die
Than to say goodbye
Than to say goodbye

But there'll come a day
Though he's away
You'll sing his song
You'll carry on
Ruby, My Dear
One day he came to you
Made the music play
His way
You said you'd rather die
Than to say goodbye
Ruby My Dear
Dear Ruby
Ruby My Dear
Hold back that tear
Ruby my Dear
Dear Ruby
Ruby my Dear
Oooooo hold back the tear
Ruby my Dear
Your love has flown
Ruby my Dear
You’re all alone
Ooooooooo
I know you cry
Ruby my Dear
Oooooo There’s no reply
Oooooooo Ruby
My Dear
Ruby my Dear
Oooooooooo
Ruby My Dear
Oooooooooo
Ruby My Dear

Carmen Mercedes McRae (1920-1994) was a U.S. jazz singer, songwriter, and pianist. McRae was born in Harlem, New York, on the 8th April 1920, and studied piano as a child. As a teenager she came to the attention of Teddy Wilson and his wife, the composer Irene Kitchings Wilson. Through their influence, one of McRae’s early songs, "Dream of Life", was recorded by Wilson’s longtime collaborator Billie Holiday.
