Текст (слова) песни: Bobby Bare - Ruby Don`t Take Your Love to Town
(Mel Tillis)
You have painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair Ruby, are you contemplating going out somewhere The shadows on the wall tell me the sun is goin` down Oh Ruby, don`t take your love to town.
It`s hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralized 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.
For it wasn`t me that started that old crazy Asian war But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chores Oh, I know Ruby that I`m not the man I used to be But Ruby, I still need your company.
And she`s leaving now `cause I`ve just heard the slamming of the door The way 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, don`t take your love to town...
