Ruby (鲁比) - Janis Ian (珍妮斯·艾恩)[00:00:00]

Written by：Janis Ian/Kye Fleming[00:00:00]

They say she's not a lady[00:00:10]

'Cause every love has its price[00:00:19]

Night after night ruby[00:00:23]

Another man at her side[00:00:32]

And each one colder than the last[00:00:36]

The men get older[00:00:45]

And the bed lies[00:00:47]

The dream dies[00:00:49]

And the looks fade too fast[00:00:51]

Ruby's got a past[00:00:56]

But when she's sleeping alone[00:01:01]

She dreams of cleansing her soul[00:01:09]

Just like they promised in church[00:01:17]

But the Sundays seem to come and go[00:01:25]

Like the preachers on the radio[00:01:29]

Above the noise and the neon[00:01:49]

There's a saxophone[00:01:57]

Playing smoky old familiar notes[00:01:59]

That float up the stairs[00:02:04]

Ruby takes a rose from her hair[00:02:08]

Sees her face in the mirror[00:02:14]

Wipes her cheek with a tear[00:02:22]

Under the make up she longs to be touched[00:02:27]

Ruby don't ask for much[00:02:33]

And when she's sleeping alone[00:02:39]

She dreams of cleansing her soul[00:02:47]

Just like they promised in church[00:02:55]

But the Sundays seem to come and go[00:03:02]

Like the preachers on the radio[00:03:06]

Some sell their bodies for dimes[00:03:25]

While others marry[00:03:34]

For the houses and the jewelry[00:03:36]

It's a real thin line[00:03:40]

What you charge for your time[00:03:46]
