作曲：M Tillis

You've 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 going down

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

And I know Ruby that I'm not

the man I used to be

But Ruby I still need your 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 for I 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 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

for my sake turn around
