Generate meaning
1
I will leave behind all of my clothes,
2
I wore when i was with you,
3
all I need's my railroad boots,
4
and my leather jacket,
5
as i say goodbye to ruby's arms,
6
although my heart is breaking,
7
i will steal away out through your
8
blinds, for soon you will be waking.
9
The morning light has washed your face,
10
and everything is turning blue now,
11
hold on to your pillow case
12
there's nothing i can do now,
13
as i say goodbye to ruby's arms,
14
you'll find another soldier,
15
and i swear to god by christmas,
16
there'll be someone else to hold you.
17
The only thing i'm taking is
18
the scarf off of your clothesline,
19
i'll hurry past your chest of drawers,
20
and your broken window chimes,
21
as i say goodbye
22
i'll say goodbye,
23
say goodbye to ruby's arms.
24
i'll feel my way down the darken hall,
25
and out into the morning,
26
the hobos at the freightyards,
27
have kept their fires burning,
28
so jesus christ this goddamn rain,
29
will someone put me on a train,
30
i'll never kiss your lips again,
31
or break your heart,
32
as i say goodbye
33
i'll say goodbye,
34
say goodbye to ruby's arms.
