Ruby Horse I know of course, that it's you,

Ruby Horse I ran your course, and I'm blue.

(black & blue)



I spent friday night with a fly-by-night,

she said, hold on tight,

she said, "Hold on tight".

I'm a son of a gun, I'm a son of a gun

It's a, bad thing I've done....

Me and my mother's only son.



Remember us? I do,

Funny me and funny you.

Oh the sun shone down like marmalade

and covered us like glue



Then she turned on me

with all honesty, me and Ruby read,

We never went to bed.

That's the truth of course

me and Ruby Horse, she

left too soon....

Underneath a bright new moon.



Ruby Horse I know of course that it's you,

Ruby Horse I ran your course and I'm blue.

Oh Ruby Red I know you're dead and I'm through.



Ha, ha, ha
