And there she goes
|
She was sitting really nice with her head full of advice from friends
|
She walks around
|
She tries to rearrange but everything goes under her bed
|
|
And it's countless
|
She's got a jar full of change saved up for vacation
|
And she's watching
|
She's watching her sons growing up just like their mom
|
|
And it's hard
|
And I said Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
Gotta start lifting your head up, head up, head up
|
And I said Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
I know it's hard but you gotta get outta bed, outta bed, outta bed
|
|
Yeah she don't know what to do
|
She's got everything and nothing to lose
|
She got a call from a guy just seeing if she's alright
|
Yeah
|
|
She's got a fistful of tears held back by the strength of five
|
And she says, "Happiness ain't free
|
Everybody fights just like me
|
But I've given up the ability to retreat"
|
|
And I said Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
You gotta start lifting your head up, head up, head up
|
And I said Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
I know it's hard but you gotta get outta bed, outta bed, outta bed
|
|
Yeah she don't know what to do
|
She's got everything, nothing to lose
|
Yeah
|
|
Yeah you've got time to figure it out
|
I'm here so don't be scared
|
You've got time to figure it out
|
I'm here and I am here
|
|
You've got time to figure it out
|
I'm here so don't be scared
|
You've got time to figure it out
|
I'm here so don't be scared
|
|
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
And I said Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
And I said Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
And I said Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
|
All alone, rest your head on my lap when you're down
|
All alone, rest your head on my lap, on my lap
|
Ruby don't cry
|
