Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town

Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town - Kenny Rogers (肯尼·罗杰斯)

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 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

That my wants and needs of a woman of your age

Ruby I realized

But it won't be long

I've heard that she tells I'm not wrong

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

Some 100 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
