paroles de chanson Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town - Rerecorded - Kenny Rogers & The First Edition

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
It's hard to love a man whose legs have been paralized.
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age; Ruby I realize.
But it wont be long, I've heard them say until I'm not around.
Oh, Ruby!
Don't take your love to town.
She's leavin' now 'cause I just heard the slammin' of the door.
The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before.
And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her on the ground.
Oh, Ruby!
Don't take your love to town.
Oh, Ruby!
For God sake's turn around.
