Play Ruby Play - Conway Twitty

Well, Ruby, she was a redneck beauty

She loved Little Richard and sang 'Tootie Fruitie'

And wanted her name in lights and wore her dresses tight

Yeah, Ruby was a victim of circumstance

'Cause she liked to wiggle and boogie dance

Out in the country she hardly ever got the chance

She had a local band, played the local bars

Had the local boys breathin' hard

She had hillbilly eyes that could shine in the dark

She had a country soul and a rock 'n' roll heart

And her whole body shook when she stood up and played the piano

And the boys say, «Play, Ruby, play, we really like the way you do it

Play, Ruby, play, we love the way you get into it»

She made the young men scream and the old men moan

Rock on, rock on, rock on

Sometimes at night with the full moon beamin'

She would run around the mountain kickin' and screamin'

Sayin', ?If I don’t get out on the road I’m gonna explode?

Last time I saw her she was down in the city

Shakin' and shoutin', making plenty

Yeah, Ruby was a sight to behold, she was on a roll

She had a local band, played the local bars

Had the local boys breathin' hard

She had hillbilly eyes that could shine in the dark

She had a country soul and a rock 'n' roll heart

And her whole body shook when she stood up and played the piano

And the boys say, «Play, Ruby, play, we really like the way you do it

Play, Ruby, play, we love the way you get into it»

She made the young men scream and the old men moan

Rock on, rock on, rock on

Rock on, rock on, rock on

Well, Ruby, she was a redneck beauty

She loved Little Richard and sang 'Tootie Fruitie'

And wanted her name in lights and wore her dresses tight

Yeah, Ruby was a victim of circumstance

'Cause she liked to wiggle and boogie dance

Out in the country she hardly ever got the chance
