Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town (Re-Recorded)

You've 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, don't take your love to townIt wasn't me that started that ol' crazy Asian war

But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore

And yes it's true, that I'm not the man I used to be

But Ruby, I still need some companyIt's hard to love a man, whose legs are bent and paralyzed

And the wants and needs of a woman of your age

Ruby I realize

It won't be long, I've heard them say, until I'm not around,

Oh Ruby, don't take your love to townShe's leaving now 'cause I just heard the slamming of the door

The way I know I've heard it slam 100 times before

And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground, oh Ruby

Don't take your love to town, oh Ruby, for God's sake turn around
