And she's been sitting in the lobby since nine
'Cept on the weekends
Watching and waiting but nobody comes
And time can move so slow
As Ruby watches all the others
She's watching and waiting but nobody comes
It's time to come to dinner
She's all dressed up in her best
Hat and gloves
Some days sure are lonely days
When you're all dressed up
She's all dressed up in her best hat and gloves
And time can move so slow
Leaving with their families
With nowhere to go
With nowhere to go
They're just running late
She's all dressed up
The nurse tells her
But the nurse knows the truth too well
She's all dressed up
Ruby Wilson lives in 303
When you're all dressed up
She just sighs and walks away
But it's almost noon on Sunday
Where she spends most her time
She says, she's expecting company
Some days sure are lonely days
But mostly, no one comes
