play Lyrics

well
ruby
she was a redneck beauty
she loved little richard and sang ‘tootie fruitie’
and wanted her name in lights and wore her dresses tight
yeah
ruby was a victim of circumstance
’cause she liked to wiggle and boogie dance
out in the country she hardly ever got the chance
she had a local band
played the local bars
had the local boys breathin’ hard
she had hillbilly eyes that could shine in the dark
she had a country soul and a rock ‘n’ roll heart
and her whole body shook when she stood up and played the piano
and the boys say
play ruby play we really like the way you do it play ruby play we love the way you get into it” she made the young men scream and the old men moan rock on rock on rock on sometimes at night with the full moon beamin’ she would run around the mountain kickin’ and screamin’ sayin’ if i don’t get out on the road i’m gonna explode last time i saw her she was down in the city shakin’ and shoutin’ making plenty yeah ruby was a sight to behold she was on a roll she had a local band played the local bars had the local boys breathin’ hard she had hillbilly eyes that could shine in the dark she had a country soul and a rock ‘n’ roll heart and her whole body shook when she stood up and played the piano and the boys say “play ruby play we really like the way you do it play ruby play we love the way you get into it” she made the young men scream and the old men moan rock on rock on rock on rock on rock on rock on well ruby she was a redneck beauty she loved little richard and sang ‘tootie fruitie’ and wanted her name in lights and wore her dresses tight yeah ruby was a victim of circumstance ’cause she liked to wiggle and boogie dance out in the country she hardly ever got the chance”
