[Verse 1]
I will leave behind all of my clothes
I wore when I was with you
All I need's my railroad boots
And my leather jacket
[Chorus 1]
As I say goodbye to Ruby's arms
Although my heart is breaking
I will steal away out through your blinds
For soon you will be waking
[Verse 2]
The morning light has washed your face
And everything is turning blue now
Hold on to your pillowcase
There's nothing I can do now
[Chorus 2]
As I say goodbye to Ruby's arms
You'll find another soldier
And I swear to god, by Christmastime
There'll be someone else to hold you
[Verse 3]
The only thing I'm taking is
The scarf off of your clothesline
I'll hurry past your chest of drawers
And your broken wind chimes
I will leave behind all of my clothes
I wore when I was with you
All I need's my railroad boots
And my leather jacket
[Chorus 1]
As I say goodbye to Ruby's arms
Although my heart is breaking
I will steal away out through your blinds
For soon you will be waking
[Verse 2]
The morning light has washed your face
And everything is turning blue now
Hold on to your pillowcase
There's nothing I can do now
[Chorus 2]
As I say goodbye to Ruby's arms
You'll find another soldier
And I swear to god, by Christmastime
There'll be someone else to hold you
[Verse 3]
The only thing I'm taking is
The scarf off of your clothesline
I'll hurry past your chest of drawers
And your broken wind chimes
