Ruth and me,
|
We come from different worlds.
|
She was a Moabite;
|
I'm a Jewish mother's girl.
|
Somehow she married a son of mine.
|
It's such a shame because my sons and husband died.
|
But there's nothing I could do.
|
I said, Ruth, I'm gonna go back home.
|
She looked at me,
|
She had something left to say:
|
I'm gonna follow you and with you I will stay.
|
I won't let you just leave,
|
Because, Mom, I love you and you are my family.
|
And there's nothing you can do;
|
Naomi gonna be with Ruth.
|
I will call on your God, too,
|
Naomi gonna be with Ruth.
|
Went home to live in Bethlehem,
|
Seen all my friends.
|
I said, my family collapsed when all the men died,
|
But Ruth has not abandoned me,
|
Changed my life to bittersweet.
|
She was married to one of my sons,
|
And when he died,
|
She came with me.
|
I'd better help her find a hubby;
|
Naomi gonna see her through.
|
Somebody local;
|
A lonely guy who needs her, too.
|
And I think I know just who
|
Naomi gonna see with Ruth.
|
You can call me old school;
|
Naomi gonna be with Ruth.
|
Sometimes I wonder what might have been
|
If Ruth abandoned me when I told her to back then.
|
Ruth had a baby and on down the line
|
Great grandson David, yeah, the one who fought the giant.
|
And there's the King of the Jews;
|
I know you've heard of Jesus, too.
|
If you call Him, Lord, too,
|
Naomi gonna be with you.
|
And he came from out of Ruth.
|
Naomi gonna be with Ruth.
|
Naomi gonna be with Ruth.
|
Naomi gonna be with Ruth.
|
Naomi gonna be with Ruth.
