Ruby's Song

Way out in the country where I used to live Lordy Lordy what I wouldn't give

To turn back the time and be a boy again and see the sun come up every morning

A quarter of a mile to the grocery store school bus came within a mile off my door

And here in distance of a cotton gin a thirty minute walk to Ruby

Oh I'd walk it in the moonlight oh I'd walk it on the dark night

Rain or shine this heart of mine craved Ruby's company

Oh she could kiss me just right oh but I was a little too shy

For I got the nerve to make my move Ruby got away from me

Oh I'd walk it in the moonlight
