[00:00.00]Ruby And Carlos - James Mcmurtry
[00:28.03]Ruby said you're gettin' us in a world of hurt
[00:31.45]
[00:32.68]Down below the mason dumbass line the food gets worse
[00:37.12]
[00:38.27]I can't go back to Tennessee
[00:40.93]That nascar country's not for me
[00:43.70]
[00:45.17]Go on if you think you must
[00:47.65]
[00:50.90]Carlos packed his drums up in the dark of night
[00:54.29]
[00:56.15]Ruby's standing just outside the front porch light
[00:59.72]
[01:01.13]Chain smoking Camel straights
[01:03.58]The sky off to the east got gray
[01:06.59]
[01:07.56]And he rolled off in a cloud of dust
[01:10.32]
[01:12.00]And the gray colt knickered at the gate
[01:14.72]She said you're right it's getting late
[01:17.67]You and me got work to do
[01:20.28]We can't be burning daylight too
[01:22.89]
[01:23.89]She took down the long lead rope
[01:26.53]And stayed off that slippery slope
[01:28.83]
[01:36.53]The aspen trees were turning gold up top
[01:39.60]
[01:41.69]The talk was buzzin 'round the beauty shop
[01:44.83]
[01:46.42]Wasn't he barely half her age
[01:49.06]
[01:49.99]Well that's just how they do now days
[01:52.78]
[01:54.63]We should all had been so lucky
[01:56.39]
[01:59.90]By spring she'd had the run of the free born men
[02:03.54]
[02:05.16]Ruby turned 50 in a sheep camp tent
[02:08.88]
[02:09.90]Her body still could rock all night
[02:12.48]But her heart was closed and locked up tight
[02:15.44]
[02:18.39]Potato fields all muddy and brown
[02:20.73]The gossip long since quieted down
[02:23.25]
[02:26.38]And after one more Coggins test
[02:28.69]
[02:29.34]Pouring coffee for the county vet
[02:31.44]
[02:32.84]Pictures on the ice box door
[02:35.38]Of Carlos in the first Gulf war
[02:38.23]Black eyed brown and youthful face
[02:40.86]Smiling back from a Saudi base
[02:43.36]
[02:46.03]And then Carlos on the big bay mare
[02:49.09]Heavier now and longer hair
[02:51.34]
[02:53.32]Looking past the saddle she'd
[02:55.44]From way on back inside his head
[02:58.00]
[03:01.24]And the old vet said one day Rube
[03:03.27]That colt will break an egg in you
[03:05.44]
[03:07.98]Now and then one comes along
[03:09.88]You just can't ride and he went on home
[03:12.57]
[03:13.14]And the storm door didn't catch
[03:15.47]It blew back hard as she struck a match
[03:18.06]But she cupped it just in time
[03:20.53]
[03:21.99]And she sent that ash tray flyin'
[03:24.42]
[03:28.58]And holding back the flood
[03:30.37]
[03:31.29]Just don't do no good
[03:33.21]
[03:33.94]You can't unclench your teeth
[03:35.84]
[03:36.46]To howl the way you should
[03:39.14]So you curl your lips around
[03:41.45]The taste the tears and the hollow sound
[03:43.99]That no one owns but you
[03:46.30]
[03:47.12]No one owns but you
[03:48.92]
[04:08.06]Carlos took the road gig and he saw it through
[04:11.21]
[04:13.47]He rode the tour bus while the singer flew
[04:16.85]
[04:18.59]Managed out of music row
[04:20.65]Carlos never saw the studio
[04:22.92]
[04:25.47]Session guys had that all sewn up
[04:27.84]
[04:30.99]He looks out the window and it starts to sleet
[04:33.98]
[04:36.21]Laying on a friend's couch on Nevada Street
[04:39.40]
[04:41.16]Lately he's been staying high
[04:43.86]Sick all winter and they don't know why
[04:46.90]
[04:48.10]They don't know why or they just won't say
[04:50.32]They don't talk much down at the V A
[04:52.94]
[04:56.35]And Ruby's in his thoughts sometimes
[04:58.74]What thoughts can get out past the wine
[05:01.07]
[05:03.14]He feels her fingers on his brow
[05:05.55]
[05:06.10]And right then he misses how
[05:07.95]She looked in that gray morning light
[05:10.51]She never shaved like they all do now
[05:13.85]He sees it all behind his eyes
[05:16.07]And his hands go searching but they come up dry
[05:18.91]
[05:21.78]And half way in that wakin' dream
[05:24.20]
[05:24.72]Carlos lets the land line ring
[05:27.49]
[05:33.68]He never guessed it was Ruby calling
[05:36.65]The pin in her hip from the gray colt falling
[05:39.32]
[05:41.18]Figure eight in a lazy lope
[05:43.75]Stumbled on that slippery slope
[05:45.89]
[05:49.69]And holding back the flood
[05:51.55]
[05:52.25]Just don't do no good
[05:54.54]
[05:55.14]You can't unclench your teeth
[05:57.57]To howl the way you should
[06:00.24]So you curl your lips around
[06:02.83]The taste the tears and the hollow sound
[06:05.39]That no one owns but you
[06:07.56]
[06:08.46]No one owns but you
