But it won't be long I've heard them say until I'm not around.

(On the album this verse is accompanied by strumming muted strings, or you can play it
the verse above)
She's leaving now 'cuz I just heard the slamming of the door.
The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before.
If I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground.
Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town.
Oh Ruby, for God sakes turn around.
