(Mel Tillis)You've painted up your lips an 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 RubyDon't take your love to townIt wasn't me that started that old crazy asian warBut I was proud to go and do my patriotic choreAnd yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be...Oh Ruby I still need some company.Its hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralysedAnd 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 not aroundOh RubyDon't take your love to townShe's leavin' now 'cause I heard the slammin' iof the doorThe way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times beforeAnd if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the groundOh Ruby Dont take your love to town
