G
You've painted up your lips
Am7 D7
and rolled and curled your tinted hair
G C D7
Ruby, are you contemplating going out somewhere?
C
The shadow on the wall tells me
D7
the sun is going down
G C Em Am D D7 G
Oh Ruby ... don't take your love to town
Am
For it wasn't me
C G
that started that old crazy Asia war
Am
But I was proud to go
C D7
and do my patriotic chores
C D7
Oh I know, Ruby, that I'm not the man I used to be
G C Em Am D7 G
But, Ruby... I still need some company
G
It's hard to love a man
Am7 D7
whose legs are bent and paralyzed
G
And the wants, the needs
C D7
of a woman your age, Ruby I realize
C
But it won't be long, I've heard them say,
D7
until I'm not around
G C Em Am D7 G
Oh Ruby... don't take your love to town
G
She's leaving now cause I just heard
Am7 D7
the slamming of the door
G
The way I know I've heard it slam
C D7
one hundred times before
C
And if I could move I'd get my gun
D7
and put her in the ground
G C Em Am D7 G
Oh Ruby... don't take your love to town
G C Em Am D7 G
Oh Ruby...for God's sake, turn around
