Testo Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town Rogers Frank
You painted up your lips And rolled and curled your tinted hair Ruby are you contemplating Going out somewhere. The shadow on the walls tells me The sun is going down Oh, Ruby Don't take your love to town. It wasn't me that started That old crazy Asian war But I was proud to go and do My patriotic chore And yes it's true that I am not The man I used to be. Oh, Ruby Still need some company It's hard to love a man whose Legs are bent and paralyzed. 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'm not around Oh, Ruby Don't take your love to town. She's leaving now 'cause I just heard The slamming of the door. Like I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before. 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) Oh, Ruby (For God's sake turn around)
