Oh Ruby Ruby

Please don't cry

Make me a pillow on your palette tonight

Oh oh Ruby

Oh Ruby Ruby

I lost my way

I left my body on that cold sad day

Oh oh Ruby

Oh Ruby I

I'm coming home

For you tonight

I'm coming home

Oh Ruby Ruby

I'll march no more

They'll be no medal for me

From this war

Oh oh Ruby

Oh Ruby Ruby

The Captain said

Tie him up until he's good and dead

Oh oh Ruby

Oh Ruby I

I'm coming home

For you tonight

I'll come marching home

Oh Ruby Ruby

Listen for the sound

Of my footsteps coming into town

Oh oh Ruby

Oh Ruby Ruby

I hope to find

You waiting for me in the cold dark night

Oh oh Ruby

Oh oh Ruby

Oh oh Ruby

Oh oh Ruby

Oh oh Ruby
