Ravishing Ruby Lyrics

Ravishing Ruby, she'd been around for awhile

Ravishing Ruby, she was a truckstop child

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

Ravishing Ruby, you poured a lot of hot coffee in your day



Ravishing Ruby, believe anything you say

Just like her daddy said, said he'd be back someday

She was just fourteen, she grew up wild and free

And all the time, she'd be waitin' on him, she'd been waiting on you and me



Ravishing Ruby, she sleeps in a bunk out back

Her days and nights are filled with dreams of a man named Smilin' 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 Smilin' Jack, he'll come rollin' by

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



Ravishing Ruby, she sleeps in a bunk out back

Her days and nights are filled with dreams of a man named Smilin' 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
