Ruby's Arms - Frente!

I will leave behind all of my clothes

I wore when I was with you

All I need’s my railroad boots

And my leather jacket

As I say goodbye to Ruby’s arms

Although my heart is breaking

I will steal away out through your blinds

Soon you will be waking

Morning light has washed your face

And everything is turning blue

Hold on to your pillow case

There’s nothing that I can do

As I say goodbye to Ruby’s arms

You’ll find another soldier

And I swear to God by christmas time

There’ll be someone else to hold you

The only thing I’m taking is

The scarf off of your clothes

I’ll hurry past your chest of drawers

And your broken wind chimes

As I say goodbye

I’ll say goodbye

I’ll say goodbye to Ruby’s arms

I will steal away down the darken hall

Out into the morning

The hobos at the freightyards

Have kept their fires burning

So Jesus Christ this goddamn rain

Will someone put me on a train

And I’ll never kiss your lips again

Or break your heart

As I say goodbye

I say goodbye

Say goodbye to Ruby’s arms
