Текст песни Ruby's Shoes - Lori McKenna
Ruby's
shoes
would
take
her
A
mile
or
so
to
school
every
day
Where
the
white
people
hated
her
They'd
scream
and
hold
signs
and
tell
her
to
go
away
But
Ruby's
will
was
stronger
Than
the
bigots
with
the
signs
could
ever
know
She
stopped
every
morning
on
the
corner
And
prayed
that
someday
the
pain
would
go
And
she'd
stop
and
she'd
pray
That
all
the
hatred
would
go
away
She
was
only
six
years
old
but
she
knew
Walk
a
mile
in
Ruby's
shoes
Ruby
sat
alone
in
the
classroom
She
never
dreamed
the
other
children
wouldn't
come
They
hated
her
for
the
color
of
her
skin
Well,
color
is
such
an
amazing
illusion
She'd
stop
and
she'd
pray
That
all
the
hatred
would
go
away
She
was
only
six
years
old
but
she
knew
Walk
a
mile
in
Ruby's
shoes
Now
Ruby
knew
about
Dorothy
And
the
ruby
shoes
that
she
wore
She
wondered
about
Oz
sometimes
Well,
well
no
other
child
ever
walked
her
shoes
before
And
she'd
stop
and
she'd
pray
That
all
the
hatred
would
go
away
She
was
only
six
years
old
but
she
knew
Walk
a
mile
in
Ruby's
shoes
Ruby,
if
birds
can
always
fly
Why,
oh
why,
can't
you
and
I?
Ruby's
shoes
would
take
her
A
mile
or
so
to
school
every
day
Where
the
white
people
hated
her
They'd
scream
and
hold
signs
and
tell
her
to
go
away
And
she'd
stop
and
she'd
pray
That
all
the
hatred
would
go
away
She'd
stop
and
she'd
pray
That
no
other
children
would
be
raised
this
way
Ruby's
shoes
If
birds
can
fly
then
why,
oh
why
If
birds
can
fly,
then
why,
oh
why
can't
I?
