Texas Ruby (Larry W. Jones 10/02/2007) (song#5031)

There's a lady singing country songs
In all the bars around San Antone
She's been singing her songs there so long
That the bars are Texas Ruby's home

Texas Ruby sings the saddest songs
That all the sad cowboys want to hear
Texas Ruby sings the saddest songs
While cowboys are crying in their beer

Texas Ruby, won't you sing for me
All your saddest country melodies
Texas Ruby, lady can't you see
She's left and long gone away from me

- instrumental -

Ruby, you've been singing for so long
I've heard you sometimes until the dawn
Texas Ruby, I am just like you
Now these bars are this sad cowboy's home

Texas Ruby sings the saddest songs
That all the sad cowboys want to hear
Texas Ruby sings the saddest songs
While cowboys are crying in their beer

Texas Ruby, won't you sing for me
All your saddest country melodies
Texas Ruby, lady can't you see
She's left and long gone away from me

Texas Ruby sings the saddest songs
