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 town It wasn't me that started that 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 Oh, Ruby I still need some company It's hard to love a man, whose legs are bent and paralyzed That my wants and needs of a woman of your age Ruby, I realized Oh Ruby, 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, some 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
