paroles de chanson Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town - Kenny Rogers

You've painted up your lips
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 are bent and paralyzed
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age
Ruby, I realized
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 'cause
I just heard the slamming of the door
The way I know I've heard it slam 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
