Ruth And Mary Lyrics

Ruth And Mary lyrics

Ruth and Mary 

 Threw a party 

 everyone was there 

 Baby Ruth she got a new tatoo 

 and Mary braided an orchid in her hair 

 their friend had a farm 

 and in that same friend's barn 

 under the stars above 

 they said their vows 

 and there was no doubt 

 this was an everlasting love 

 and Ruth says 

 Ah, loves gotta hold on me 

 Ah, it just won't let me be 

 My brothers and my sisters 

 will you ever see 

 the truth that's shared in Ruth and Mary 

 some folks say 

 its the sinners way 

 to live and love alike 

 but they can't feel 

 this loves is real 

 they say that kind of love ain't right 

 and Mary says 

 Ah, loves gotta hold on me 

 Ah, it just won't let me be 

 My brothers and my sisters 

 will you ever see 

 the truth that's shared in Ruth and Mary 

 Ruth and Mary on the freeway 

 tunnel vision Mexico 

 windows down 

 through the border towns 

 and Ricky Lee on the radio 

 singin' it's your last chance 

 pullin' out of that last chance Texaco 

 and Ruth says 

 Ah, loves gotta hold on me 

 Ah, it just won't let me be 

 and my brothers and my sisters 

 we may never see 

 the truth that's shared in Ruth and Mary...
