[00:14.00]
[00:15.90]In nineteen and double-aught
[00:18.69]A harlot who was hot to trot
[00:21.09]Gave a fine little bijou to the world
[00:26.12]With a blacksmith for a makeshift doc
[00:28.78]In a cathouse far from Camelot
[00:31.66]Her gold mine brought to bed a baby girl
[00:36.85]When the child screamed from life's first slap
[00:39.77]The bawd said kid get used to that
[00:42.12]You'll never meet a day that isn't cruel
[00:47.82]Then she wrapped her babe in a petticoat
[00:50.16]Grabbed a bottle and made a toast
[00:52.77]Here's to my gorgeous bastard Ruby Jewel
[00:57.79]And the man at the piano played a tune
[01:02.91]And everybody sang and danced in the saloon
[01:08.82]Except Ruby, no not Ruby, Ruby Jewel
[01:13.77]Reared among the guttersnipe
[01:19.01]While her mama puffed the Chinese pipe
[01:24.48]The salad days for Ruby didn't last
[01:29.60]Forced to work and pay her dues
[01:32.39]Inside that poor man's Moulin Rouge
[01:34.99]The snot-nosed kid had to grow up fast
[01:40.08]Night and day she'd toil and sweat
[01:42.90]While brothel patrons placed their bets
[01:45.40]On who would be the first to break her in
[01:50.21]Then one night the madam screams
[01:53.65]Ruby get to room thirteen
[01:56.15]There's someone there who thinks you're quite a gem
[02:01.50]And the man at the piano played a tune
[02:06.37]And everybody sang and danced in the saloon
[02:11.50]Except Ruby no not Ruby Ruby Jewel
[02:22.12]In done up hair and a borrowed dress
[02:24.99]She climbed the stares scared to death
[02:27.48]Said a prayer and tip-toed through the door
[02:32.72]But on deaf ears her prayer fell
[02:35.36]Cause through her tears she stared at hell
[02:38.08]Standing there in nothing but his drawers
[02:43.13]She recognized the whiskered chin
[02:46.11]Bloodshot eyes and foul-mouthed grin
[02:48.69]He was the man who wore the silver star
[02:54.38]She tried to turn around and run
[02:56.85]But he pulled out his big six gun
[02:59.43]And said whore you won't get very far
[03:04.58]And the man at the piano played a tune
[03:09.50]And everybody sang and danced in the saloon
[03:14.90]Except Ruby, no not Ruby, Ruby Jewel
[03:25.21]Ruby Jewel woke up in bed
[03:28.76]A crimson pool between her legs
[03:31.08]Naked as the day that she was born
[03:36.29]But lying there next to him
[03:38.94]Made her wish she hadn't been
[03:41.47]If this was all that living had in store
[03:46.69]Making sure he was asleep
[03:49.44]She quietly got to her feet
[03:52.01]Found his gun and aimed it 'tween his eyes
[03:57.23]She kept it there 'til he came to
[03:59.80]So he could stare down the barrel too
[04:02.34]Pulled the trigger once and watched him die
[04:07.63]And the man at the piano played a tune
[04:12.55]And everybody sang and danced in the saloon
[04:18.50]Except Ruby no not Ruby Ruby Jewel
[04:28.59]On a rainy night in nineteen-twelve
[04:31.59]Locked inside the town's new jail
[04:34.36]Ruby carved a message in the stone
[04:39.42]When morning came hacks led her out
[04:42.26]In ankle chains right through the crowd
[04:44.76]Who waited in the mud to watch the show
[04:49.86]They walked her up the gallows steps
[04:52.75]But the rope around her neck
[04:55.44]Dropped the trap as all the watchers cheered
[05:00.30]But on the wall of her cell
[05:03.29]In a tiny scrawl and misspelled
[05:05.86]Were the words Ruby Jewel Was Here
[05:10.74]And the man at the piano played a tune
[05:15.84]And everybody sang and danced in the saloon
[05:21.50]Except Ruby, no not Ruby, Ruby Jewel
[05:30.42]
