Artist/Band: Tom T. Hall
Lyrics for Song: Ravishing Ruby
Lyrics for Album: Millennium Collection [MCA] [2000]



(Tom T. Hall)



Ravishing Ruby she'd been around for a while

Ravishing Ruby she was a truckstop child

Born in the back of a rig somewhere near L.A.

Ravishing Ruby you poured a lotta hot coffee in your day.



Ravishing Ruby believe anything you say

Just like her daddy said said he'd be back some day

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.



Ravishing Ruby she sleeps in the bunkyard back

Her days and nights're filled with dreams of a man named Smiling Jack

That was her daddy's name and that's all she ever knew

Ravishing Ruby ain't got time for guys like me and you.



Ravishing Ruby a beautiful young girl now

Ravishing Ruby she made a solemn vow

Waitin' on Smiling Jack he'll come rolling by

And she wants to see him she wants to touch him either way dead or alive.



Ravishing Ruby she sleeps in the bunkyard back

Her days and nights're filled with dreams of a man named Smiling Jack

That was her daddy's name and that's all she ever knew

Ravishing Ruby ain't got time for guys like me and you...
