Loneliness in Ruby's Eyes

guitar chords lyrics

David Allan Coe

by david allan coe
they say she came all the way from dallas
but i see more than texas in the hard times on her face

and every song she sings brings back a hundred thousand memories
of another girl, another time, another place
she does not have the body of the woman i once loved
but she's still the girl that i once idolized
and, i swear, i see a little bit of every girl i've known
in the loneliness of ruby's eyes, in the loneliness of ruby's eyes
kinfolks say she's had a lot of lovers
and love don't leave a woman filled with shame
and i've heard tell she had a child in dallas
and all the men in houston know her name

and all the men in houston know her name
