Kenny Rogers - Rudy Don'T Take Your Love To Town lyrics

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 old 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

Its hard to love a man
Whose legs are bent and paralysed
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 not around 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 slamming
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
