They say she came all the way from dallas
But i see more than texas in the hard times on her face
And every song she sings brings back a hundred thousand memories
Of another girl, another time, another place

She does not have the body of the woman i once loved
But she's still the girl that i once idolized
And, i swear, i see a little bit of every girl i've known
In the loneliness of ruby's eyes, in the loneliness of ruby's eyes

Kinfolks say she's had a lot of lovers
And love don't leave a woman filled with shame
And i've heard tell she had a child in dallas
And all the men in houston know her name
