Ravishing Ruby
written and recorded by Tom T. Hall

 G           D7                  G 
Ravishing Ruby she's been a-round for a while
           D7               G 
Ravishing Ruby she was a truck stop child
                                      C 
Born in the back of a rig  somewhere near L.A.
           G                   D7                  G 
Ravishing Ruby you poured a lot of hot coffee in your day

           D7                G 
Ravishing Ruby believe anything you say
               D7                         G 
Just like her daddy said  said he'd be back some day
                                    C 
She was just fourteen  she grew up wild and free
             G                            D7 
And all the time she'd been waiting on him
                       G 
She'd been waiting on you and me

           C                      G 
Ravishing Ruby she sleeps in a bunk out back
              D7 
Her days and nights are filled with dreams
                G 
Of a man named Smiling Jack
              C                                 G 
That was her daddy's name and that's all she ever knew
           D7                                  G 
Ravishing Ruby ain't got time for guys like me and you

           D7                 G 
Ravishing Ruby a beautiful young girl now
           D7                G 
Ravishing Ruby she made a solemn vow
                                     C 
Waiting on Smiling Jack  he'll come rolling by
                  G                      D7 
And she wants to see him she wants to touch him
            G 
Either way dead or alive

Repeat #3
