Ruby Don`t Take Your Love To Town

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