Rudy Baby
Björk · Gling-Glo
I've got a girl and Ruby is her name
She don't love me but I love her just the same
Ruby, Ruby, how I want you
Like a ghost I'm gonna haunt you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
Oh, each time I see my baby my heart cries
I'm gonna steal her away from all those guys
From the sunny day I met you
Made a bet that I would get you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
I've got a girl and Ruby is her name
She don't love me but I love her just the same
Ruby, Ruby, how I want you
Like a ghost I'm gonna haunt you,
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine, be mine, be mine ?
Each time I see my baby my heart cries
I'm going to steal you away from all those guys
From the sunny day I met you
Made a bet that I would get you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
I've got a girl and Ruby is her name
I, I'd go out just to get her all the same
Got some loving money too
Gonna give it all to you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
When will you be mine?
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
My Ruby, my Ruby, my Ruby
When will you be mine?
My Ruby, ahhhh, when will you be mine?
When will you be mine?
My Ruby, Ruby when will you be mine?
She don't love me but I love her just the same
Ruby, Ruby, how I want you
Like a ghost I'm gonna haunt you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
Oh, each time I see my baby my heart cries
I'm gonna steal her away from all those guys
From the sunny day I met you
Made a bet that I would get you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
I've got a girl and Ruby is her name
She don't love me but I love her just the same
Ruby, Ruby, how I want you
Like a ghost I'm gonna haunt you,
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine, be mine, be mine ?
Each time I see my baby my heart cries
I'm going to steal you away from all those guys
From the sunny day I met you
Made a bet that I would get you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
I've got a girl and Ruby is her name
I, I'd go out just to get her all the same
Got some loving money too
Gonna give it all to you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
When will you be mine?
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
My Ruby, my Ruby, my Ruby
When will you be mine?
My Ruby, ahhhh, when will you be mine?
When will you be mine?
My Ruby, Ruby when will you be mine?
Rudy Baby
Björk's "Rudy Baby" serves as a vibrant, playful interlude on the 2001 album *Gling-Glo*, showcasing her signature ability to blend electronic textures with organic instrumentation. The track features a distinctive, childlike vocal delivery that contrasts with the song's driving rhythm, reflecting the album's eclectic mix of folk, pop, and electronic elements. Released during a period where Björk continued to explore fluid identities and emotional vulnerability, the recording stands as a testament to her commitment to sonic experimentation. While not a chart-topping single, the song remains a cherished example of her mid-2000s discography, capturing a moment of whimsical joy within her broader artistic narrative.
