She had a local band, played the bars Had the local boys hard She had hillbilly eyes that shine in the dark She had a country and a rock 'n' roll heart
And her whole body shook when she stood up and played the And the boys say, "Play, Ruby, play, we like the way you do it Play, Ruby, play, we love the way you get it" She made the young men scream and the old men Rock on, rock on, on
Sometimes at night with the full moon She would run the mountain kickin' and screamin' Sayin', If I don't get out on the I'm gonna explode Last time I saw her she was in the city Shakin' and shoutin', plenty Yeah, was a sight to behold, she was on a roll
She had a local band, the local bars Had the local boys breathin' She had hillbilly eyes that could in the dark She had a country and a rock 'n' roll heart
And her whole body shook when she up and played the piano And the boys say, "Play, Ruby, play, we like the way you do it Play, Ruby, play, we love the way you get it" She made the young men and the old men moan on, rock on, rock on Rock on, on, rock on
Well, Ruby, she was a redneck She loved Little Richard and sang 'Tootie And wanted her name in lights and wore her dresses Yeah, Ruby was a victim of 'Cause she liked to wiggle and boogie Out in the she hardly ever got the chance
