Thank you.
I'm really proud and I'm honored to have this next act on the show tonight.
Some people we've been wanting on for a long time.
They've long been friends of mine and no finer people are there anywhere.
I suppose it's always nice to be first no matter what you're trying to do.
And tonight I'm proud to say that we have a first with us on the show.
Four great people and [N] one of the finest musical groups in the country with their big record.
Here's the first edition.
You've painted up your lips [Em] in gold and curled [G] your tinted hair.
[Dm] [C] Ruby are you contemplating going [G] out somewhere?
The [Dm] shadow on the wall [G] tells me the sun is going down.
[Dm] [C] Oh Ruby, [F] [Dm]
[G] don't take your love to [C] town.
[Dm] It wasn't me that started [C] the whole crazy Asian war.
[Dm] But I was proud to go and [F] do my [G] patriotic show.
[Dm] Yes it's true that I'm [G] not the man I used to be.
[Dm] [C] Oh Ruby, [E] [Dm] I still [C] need some company.
It's hard to love a man whose labor's meant [G] to paralyze.
[Dm] [C] And the wants and the needs of a woman your [F] age, Ruby I [G] realize.
But it [Dm] won't be long I've heard [G] them say until I'm not around.
[Dm] [C]
Oh [F] Ruby, [Dm]
don't take [C] your love to town.
She's [B] leaving now cause I just heard the slamming of the door.
[B] The way I know I've heard it slammed one hundred times before.
And if [Dm] I could move I'd get [G] my gun and put her in the ground.
[Dm] [C] Oh Ruby, [Em] [Dm] [C]
don't take your love to town.
Oh [F] Ruby, [Em] [Dm]
[Bb] for God's sakes turn around.
[N]
