Ravishing Ruby

In the style of

Tom T. Hall

Lyrics

ravishin' ruby
she'd been around
for a while
ravishin' ruby
a-she was
a truckstop child

born in
the back of a rig
a-somewhere near l.a.
ravishin' ruby
you've poured a lotta
hot coffee in your day

ravishin' ruby
believed anything
you say
just like
her daddy said
he said
he'd be back someday

she was just fourteen
she grew up
wild and free and
all the time
she's been waitin'
on him
she's been waitin'
on you and me

ravishin' ruby
a-she sleeps
in a bunk out back
her days and nights
are filled with dreams
of a man named
smilin' jack

a-that was
her daddy's name
and that's all
she ever knew
ravishin' ruby
ain't got time for guys
like me and you

ravishin' ruby
a beautiful
young girl now
ravishin' ruby
a-she made
a solemn vow

waitin' on smilin' jack
he'll come a-rollin' by
and she wants
to see him
she wants
to touch him
either way
dead or alive

ravishin' ruby
a-she sleeps
in a bunk out back
her days and nights
are filled with dreams
of a man named
smilin' jack

that was
her daddy's name
and that's all
she ever knew
ravishin' ruby
ain't got time for guys
like me and you
