Little Ruby
LERA LYNN · Resistor 2016 · Track 10 of 10
I have a letter that you sent me in the mail Signed with love, covered in a sweet smell But the top left corner of the envelope, said 'little ruby' And that was all you wrote No way to find you No way to ring your little bell
What are you hidin', you're living in a big mess I thought you were just a pretty little waitress Maybe you're hidin' out from the police Maybe they've got you in a penitentiary I wanna find you I wanna make you come fast
Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend?
I thought you were just a late night bartender A heavy scissor-handed hack job hairdresser Maybe a mermaid, livin' underwater Or maybe worse, the preacher's daughter How can I find you, I wanna return to sender
Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend?
Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend?
Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend?
