Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town

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 old 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
 ♪
 And 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
 ♪
 The way I know I've heard it
 Slam one hundred 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
