VERSE 1

So cool
Comin' home from school
Hearin' Ruby hard at workin'
Sittin' on the stoop rehearsin'
She'd sing, and her voice would reach out and capture your heart... Yeah!

BRIDGE 1

Ruby, Ruby are ya' lonesome every night?
Does your heart ache for laughter?
Tell me, Ruby, are you hurting deep inside?
This is how she'd reply...
