Lyrics Rock and Roll Ruby - Johnny Cash

Rock and Roll Ruby

Well I took my Ruby juking
On the out-skirts of town
She took her high heels off
And rolled her stockings down
She put a quarter in the jukebox
To get a little beat
Everybody started watching
All the rhythm in her feet
She’s my rock and roll Ruby, rock and roll
Rock and roll Ruby, rock and roll
When Ruby starts a-rocking
Boy it satisfies my soul
Now Ruby started rocking about one o’clock
And when she started rocking
She just couldn’t stop
She rocked on the tables
And rolled on the floor
And Everybody yelled: «Ruby rock some more!»
It was around about four
I thought she would stop
She looked at me and then
She looked at the clock
She said: «Wait a minute Daddy
Now don’t get sour
All I want to do
Is rock a little bit more»
One night my Ruby left me all alone
I tried to contact her on the telephone
I finally found her about twelve o’clock
She said: «Leave me alone Daddy
Because your Ruby wants to rock»
Rock, rock, rock and roll
When Ruby starts a-rocking
Boy it satisfies my soul
