Play Ruby Play
(Verse)
Ruby she was a red neck beauty, Loved little Richard and sang Tutty Frutty
Wanted her name in lights, She wore her dresses tight
Ruby was a victim of circumstance, She liked to wiggle and boogie dance
But out in the country she hardly ever got the chance
( chores)
She had a local band that played the local bars
She had the local boys breathing hard
She had hillbilly eyes that would shine in the dark
She had a country soul and a rock and roll heart
And her whole body shook when she stood up
And played the piano
And the boys say play Ruby play, I really like the way you do it
Play Ruby play, I love the way you get in to it, She made the young men scream and the old men moan
Rock on rock on rock on. (Leed)
( verse )
Sometimes at night with the full moon beaming
She’d run around the mountain kicking and screaming
Saying If I don’t get out on the road I’m going to explode
Last time I saw her she was down in the city, Shaking and shouting making plenty
Ruby was a sight to behold when she was on a roll. (chores)
(Tag out after chores)
Rock on rock on rock on
play ruby play I really like the way you do it play Ruby play I love the way you get in to it.
