Well, I knew someday Ruby would be leavin,
That she wasnt happy livin quietly, quietly.
Cause she would get that bedroom look each mornin,
and I felt Ruby pull away from me.
So go down-town at nine o clock this evenin;
Walk under that red light then down the hall, down the hall.
Look for the highest flyin girl, thats Ruby.
And if you wait your turn, youll see Ruby fall.
Dont let her know that you even know me;
Shell be tryin to forget it all.
And dont tell me how it was tonight, tomorrow,
cause I dont want to see Ruby fall.
Well, I didnt hold her back when she got restless;
One man is not enough when she wants it all.
I let her go when I saw what she wanted,
cause I dont care to see Ruby fall.
