I have a letter that you sent me in the mail Signed with love, covered in a sweet smell But the top left the corner of the envelope Said little Ruby, and that was all you wrote No way to find you, no way to ring your little bell What are you hiding? You're living in a big mess I thought you were just a pretty little waitress Maybe you're hiding out from the police Maybe they got you in the penitentiary I wanna find you, I wanna make you confess Sweet little Ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little Ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend? I thought you were just a late-night bartender A habit-scissor-handed ***-job hairdresser Maybe a mermaid living underwater Or maybe worse, the peach's daughter How can I find you? I wanna return your cinder Sweet little Ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little Ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend? Sweet little Ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little Ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend? Sweet little Ruby, why won't you love me? Why won't you let me see you again? Sweet little Ruby, who are you really? Why won't you let me be your friend? Sweet little Ruby, who are you really?
