[Verse 1]
Ruby said "You're gettin' us in a world of hurt
"Down below the Mason-Dumb Ass line the food gets worse
"I can't go back to Tennessee
"That NASCAR country's not for me
"Go on if you think you must"
[Verse 2]
Carlos packed his drums up in the dark of night
Ruby's standin' just outside the front porch light
Chain-smokin' Camel straights
The sky off to the East got grey
And he rolled off in a cloud of dust
[Verse 3]
The grey colt nickered at the gate
She said "You're right, it's gettin' late
"You and me got work to do
"We can't be burnin' daylight too"
She took down the long lead rope
And stayed off that slippery slope
[Verse 4]
The aspen trees were turnin' gold up-top
The talk was buzzin' 'round the beauty shop
"Wasn't he barely half her age?
"Well that's just how they do nowadays
"We should all've been so lucky"
