The Ballad of Ruby 歌词

Ruby can't talk to your face Cause the moment he does he begins to shudder Ruby, he feels out of place Says he thinks that it stems from his dad and mother But Ruby can talk to the man on the moon Says the man on the moon, he listens That's more than he can say that his dad ever did Though he never meant no harm, right on Ruby ain't got no money in the pocket of his pants Held together with scotch tape And Ruby cuts his funky hair by himself Modeled after pictures of his guitar hero, Jimmy Page Ruby got plans 'bout movin' to the city Movin' out of his broken down trailer Livin' at a place where he don't stick out And where Ruby can do no wrong, I said... Right on, Ruby kid What ya gonna do just to make it all better Well, whatever it is, you got to do what you please Who ya gonna look to to get yourself together So ends the story of Ruby, kid Ruby can't make up his mind He's been waitin' on a line 'bout his sexual preference His girlfriend, she couldn't care less And the boys... well, the boys will be boys But Ruby can stare at the clouds and pretend It's alright and forget his sorrow And Ruby can sleep good tonight 'Cause he knows that there'll Always be tomorrow, I say... Right on, Ruby kid
