See Ruby Fall

Well, I knew someday

Ruby would be leaving

That she wasn't happy

Living quietly, quietly



Cause she would get that

Bedroom look each morning

And I felt Ruby

Pull away from me



Yeah, so go downtown

At nine o'clock this evening

Walk under that red light

Then down the hall, down the hall



Look for the highest flying girl

That's Ruby

And if you wait your turn

You'll see Ruby fall



Don't let her know

That you even know me

She'll be trying

To forget it all



And don't tell me how

It was tonight, tomorrow

Cause I don't want to

See Ruby fall



I didn't hold her back

When she got restless

One man is not enough

When she wants it all



Yeah, I let her go

When I saw what she wanted

Cause I don't care to

See Ruby fall
