"Ruby Red Rose" lyrics

Everybody knows that Ruby Red Rose doesn't have a lot of time
She takes what she needs in the spring, then withers and dies
All I want to be is the apple in your tree hanging out by your side
I like what you see, but you don't like what I can't hide

Feel it in your fingers, feel it in your toes
Everybody knows Ruby Red Rose
Love me when you're high, love me on low
Everybody knows where Ruby Red goes
Little bit of rain, little bit of hope
Little bit of sun to make it all grow
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Ruby Red Rose

Everybody knows that Ruby Red Rose doesn't have a lot to lose
She takes what she needs, then leaves you singing the blues
All I want to be is the apple in your tree, but I don't really have the juice
I like what you see, but you can't like what I can't choose

Feel it in your fingers, feel it in your toes
Everybody knows Ruby Red Rose
Love me when you're high, love me on low
Everybody knows where Ruby Red goes
Little bit of rain, little bit of hope
Little bit of sun to make it all grow
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Ruby Red Rose

Ruby Red Rose
Ruby Red Rose
Ruby Red Rose

Feel it in your fingers, feel it in your toes
Everybody knows Ruby Red Rose
Love me when you're high, love me on low
Everybody knows where Ruby Red goes
Little bit of rain, little bit of hope
Little bit of sun to make it all grow
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Ruby Red Rose
