I will leave behind all of my clothes
\nI wore when I was with you
\nAll I need’s my railroad boots
\nAnd my leather jacket
\nAs I say goodbye to Ruby’s arms
\nAlthough my heart is breaking
\nI will steal away out through your blinds
\nFor soon you will be waking<\/p>\n

The morning light has washed your face
\nAnd everything is turning blue now
\nHold on to your pillow case
\nThere’s nothing I can do now
\nAs I say goodbye to Ruby’s arms
\nYou’ll find another soldier
\nAnd I swear to God by Christmas time
\nThere’ll be someone else to hold you<\/p>\n

The only thing I’m taking is
\nThe scarf off of your clothesline
\nI’ll hurry past your chest of drawers
\nAnd your broken wind chimes
\nAs I say goodbye I’ll say goodbye
\nSay goodbye to Ruby’s arms<\/p>\n

I’ll feel my way down the darkened hall
\nAnd out into the morning
\nThe hobos at the freight yards
\nHave kept their fires burning
\nJesus Christ
\nThis goddamn rain
\nWill someone put me on a train
\nI’ll never kiss your lips again
\nOr break your heart
\nAs I say goodbye I’ll say goodbye
\nSay goodbye to Ruby’s arms.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
