It dried up but it couldn't run forever
Uh huh, uh huh
I still like the ocean
Down a hole where the rocks are steep
Uh huh, uh huh
Ruby dear that's what we hear
'Round and 'round and we won't let go
And if to Hell we're going
And all those watermelons
Have gone to seed
Oh this record's broken
It slips a beat
Nothing lives in this dirty little river
Settle down in that rocking chair
Breathing in that rotten air
Looking like they lost control
And where we stop no one knows
Think about what everyone is saying
They might look the same
Looking like we'll never learn
Ruby dear, oh don't you hear?
Now they throw the fox amongst the chickens
Down the street where the bonfires glow
It's too deep, I'll drown in my sleep
Down by the sea
Ruby dear, so looky here
Angels and prostitutes
Hounding me from the bedroom to the kitchen
Uh huh, uh huh
No one here will shed a tear
Down and down in a spin we turn
It tempted me
They left that door wide open
Johnny Jones fell fast asleep
Ruby dear, I'm still not here
Uh huh, uh huh
Uh huh, uh huh
I'll see you there
Late at night when the radio is playing
