Paroles de Ruby's Stool

She's been dancing all night long with my man
Well I thought about cutting in, aw but I can't
'Cause I'm gonna sit right here
And empty this ashtray in her beer
I can't wait to see her drinking from that can
I'm sitting on Ruby's stool right next to Bill
She likes breaking old Bill's heart, she always will
A honky tonk girl oughta know better than to break the rules
I'm fed up with her and I'm sitting on Ruby's stool

Everybody always gives her lots of space
No one would ever dare get in her face
I ain't never been one to fight
But friends, tonight's the night
I'm just the one that'll put her in her place

I'm sitting on Ruby's stool right next to Bill
She likes breaking old Bill's heart, she always will
A honky tonk girl oughta know better than to break the rules
I don't like her so I'm sitting on Ruby's stool


I'm sitting on Ruby's stool right next to Bill
She likes breaking old Bill's heart, she always will
Honky tonk girl oughta know better than to break the rules Nobody in this little tavern likes her
I don't know why she hangs around here–ah, the boys do
I see why they like her, we all know why they like her
Ruby
