"Ruby" lyrics

"Ruby"

Ninety miles an hour through an electric storm
Just another town or two until New Mexico
"Can you feel it? I can feel it, too"

Why does my Coca-Cola taste like gasoline?
I see you fightin' back a grin
You think you're foolin' me

I can't believe it
I can't believe you'd do that to me, Ruby

"I bet you ten dollars I can guess your name
Suzy Burlingame?
Or Judy Gables? Or is it Maybelle?
I'm sure it's Eleanor
Maybe Sable? I've never met a Sable
I'm sure it's Eleanor"

Why's the porch light on? I thought you'd flipped the breaker
And who's that moving around inside?
Oh Ruby, I'm too young to die

Would you go in with me?
I want you by my side

"I bet you ten dollars I can guess your name
Suzy Burlingame?
Judy Gables? Or is it Maybelle?
Nah, I'm sure it's Eleanor"
