Little Ruby

I have a letter that you sent me in the mail

Signed with love, covered in a sweet smell

But the top left corner of the envelope, said 'little ruby'

And that was all you wrote

No way to find you

No way to ring your little bell

What are you hidin', you're living in a big mess

I thought you were just a pretty little waitress

Maybe you're hidin' out from the police

Maybe they've got you in a penitentiary

I wanna find you

I wanna make you come fast

Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me?

Why won't you let me see you again?

Sweet little ruby, who are you really?

Why won't you let me be your friend?

I thought you were just a late night bartender

A heavy scissor-handed hack job hairdresser

Maybe a mermaid, livin' underwater

Or maybe worse, the preacher's daughter

How can I find you, I wanna return to sender

Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me?

Why won't you let me see you again?

Sweet little ruby, who are you really?

Why won't you let me be your friend?

Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me?

Why won't you let me see you again?

Sweet little ruby, who are you really?

Why won't you let me be your friend?

Sweet little ruby, why won't you love me?

Why won't you let me see you again?

Sweet little ruby, who are you really?

Why won't you let me be your friend?
