Holton/Steel : Ruby 

                                                               D    Am
You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair,
  G                          C             D
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere?
    Am                             D                    Am
The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down,
  G  C  G  Am                             G
Oh Rub-------y, don't take your love to town.


 Am                                C         G
It wasn't me who started that old crazy Asian war,
 Am                              C         D
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore,
 Am                                 D                   Am
And yes, it's true that I am not the man I used to be,
  G  C  G  Am                             G
Oh Rub-------y, I still need some company.


  G                                  C           D       Am
It's hard to love a man whose legs have been paralyzed,
  G                                             C          D
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realize,
    Am                                       D                    Am
But it won't be long, I've heard them say, until I'm not around,
  G  C  G  Am                             G
Oh Rub-------y, 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 one hundred times before,
    Am                                       D                 Am
And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground,
  G  C  G  Am                             G
Oh Rub-------y, don't take your love to town.



  G  C  G  Am                             
Oh Rub-------y, for God sakes turn around.

    I første linje er det "creasy tinted hair" ikke "curled your tinted hair"... Kan noen rette dette hadde seg blitt glad. :-)
