[Verse 1]
Ruby's Lounge was none too clean
The lights never worked on the pinball machine
The sawdust floor hadn't been swept in years
Brass spittoons and padded stools
The same collection of half-drunk fools
Joking with Ruby or cryin' in their beers
[Verse 2]
Ruby's Lounge had a neon sign
The big old ugly blinkin' kind
It said, "Ruby's Lounge...Your husband's not Here"
And ten cents played a jukebox tune
Old songs like "Shine On Harvest Moon"
And six bits bought a pitcher of cold draft beer
[Chorus]
Oh Ruby, Ruby, time has flown
And how your little girl has grown
Ruby's Lounge seems, oh, so far away
But Ruby, you never stopped to rest
So your little girl could have the bеst
And I'll love your, mama, and Ruby's Lounge
Until my dyin' day
[Verse 3]
Now Ruby's Lounge had a cliеntele
They didn't dress, they didn't pay too well
But every night you could count on 'em
Droppin' in
An occasional fight or a dirty word
Wasn't nothin' that I hadn't heard
And I've never felt safer anywhere I've been
Ruby's Lounge was none too clean
The lights never worked on the pinball machine
The sawdust floor hadn't been swept in years
Brass spittoons and padded stools
The same collection of half-drunk fools
Joking with Ruby or cryin' in their beers
[Verse 2]
Ruby's Lounge had a neon sign
The big old ugly blinkin' kind
It said, "Ruby's Lounge...Your husband's not Here"
And ten cents played a jukebox tune
Old songs like "Shine On Harvest Moon"
And six bits bought a pitcher of cold draft beer
[Chorus]
Oh Ruby, Ruby, time has flown
And how your little girl has grown
Ruby's Lounge seems, oh, so far away
But Ruby, you never stopped to rest
So your little girl could have the bеst
And I'll love your, mama, and Ruby's Lounge
Until my dyin' day
[Verse 3]
Now Ruby's Lounge had a cliеntele
They didn't dress, they didn't pay too well
But every night you could count on 'em
Droppin' in
An occasional fight or a dirty word
Wasn't nothin' that I hadn't heard
And I've never felt safer anywhere I've been
