Ravishing Ruby Lyrics - Tom T. Hall

Ravishing Ruby, she'd been around for awhile 

Ravishing Ruby, she was a truckstop child 

Born in the back of a rig somewhere near L.A. 

Ravishing Ruby, you poured a lot of hot coffee in your day 

Ravishing Ruby, believe anything you say 

Just like her daddy said, said he'd be back someday 

She was just fourteen, she grew up wild and free 

And all the time she'd be waitin' on him, she'd been waiting on you and me 

Ravishing Ruby, she sleeps in a bunk out back

Her days and nights are filled with dreams of a man named Smilin' Jack 

That was her daddy's name and that's all she ever knew 

Ravishing Ruby ain't got time for guys like me and you 

Ravishing Ruby, a beautiful young girl now 

Ravishing Ruby, she made a solemn vow 

Photos 

Waitin' on Smilin' Jack, he'll come rollin' by 

And she wants to see him, she wants to touch him either way, dead or alive 

Ravishing Ruby, she sleeps in a bunk out back 

Her days and nights are filled with dreams of a man named Smilin' Jack 

That was her daddy's name and that's all she ever knew 

Ravishing Ruby ain't got time for guys like me and you
