Chords
[Verse 1]
C You've Cpainted up your lips and rolled and Fcurled your tinted hair G7
Dm CRuby, are you contemplating Fgoing out someG7where?
The Dmshadow on the wall tells me the G7sun is going down
[Chorus]
Dm Oh, CRuFby, C/E
Dm Don't take your love to Ctown
[Verse 2]
It Dmwasn't me that started that old Ccrazy Asian war
But DmI was proud to go and do my Fpatriotic G7chore
DmAnd yes, it's true that I'm not G7the man I used to be
[Chorus]
Dm Oh, CRuFby, C/E
Dm I still need some company C
[Verse 3]
It's Chard to love a man whose legs are Fbent and paralyzed G7
Dm And the Cwants and the needs of a woman your age,
FRuby, I realize G7
But it Dmwon't be long I've heard them say unG7til I'm not around
[Chorus]
Dm Oh, CRuFby, C/E
Dm Don't take your love to Ctown
[Verse 4]
She's Cleaving now 'cause I just heard the Fslamming of the door G7
The Cway I know I've heard it slam one Fhundred times before G7
And if DmI could move I'd get my gun and G7put her in the ground
[Chorus]
Dm Oh, CRuFby, C/E
Dm Don't take your love to Ctown
[Outro]
Oh, CRuFby, C/E
Dm for God's sakes turn around
[Fade Out]
C
