| Staring at shadows on the wall
|
| Wish I knew of someone I could call
|
| Someone who might understand it all
|
| Ruby Lee, sure wish you were here with me
|
| Someone lying with me in my bed
|
| Some stranger who don’t understand my head
|
| Wish it was you lying here instead
|
| Ruby Lee, sure wish you were here with me
|
| Drowning in a sea of pretty faces
|
| Being quite the man about the town
|
| Packing up and going pretty places
|
| But I sure miss you around
|
| Listen to the noises down the hall
|
| Think I’ll move out of here in the fall
|
| Ain’t exactly having me a ball
|
| Ruby Lee, sure wish you were here with me
|
| Drowning in a sea of pretty faces
|
| Being quite the man about the town
|
| Packing up and going pretty places
|
| But I sure miss you around
|
| Listen to the noises down the hall
|
| Wishin' there was someone out to call
|
| Ain’t exactly having me a ball
|
| Ruby Lee, sure wish you were here with me |
