Lyrics

Ruby

[Verse 1]

Ruby

Oh baby don't you know

Girl, your silence hurts me so

Are you listening?

Ruby

Oh baby can't you see

It's the source of misery

Are you listening?

[Chorus]

Troubles

They seem to follow me

As far as I can see

It must be my destiny

Troubles

They carry you around

From the crib into the ground

They will never set you down

[Bridge]

Mm la la la

La la la la

Mm la la la

La la la la

[Verse 2]

Ruby

Oh baby can't you see

I'm so sad it's killing me

Are you listening?

Ruby

If you like to think out loud

It might really help me out

Are you listening, girl?

[Chorus]

Troubles

They seem to follow me

As far as I can see it must be my destiny

Troubles

They carry you around

From the crib into the ground

They will never set you down

[Bridge]

Mm la la la

La la la la

Mm la la la

La la laaa

[Bridge]

Ba ba ba baa

Ba ba ba baa

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening, girl?

Ba ba ba baa

Ba ba ba baa

Ba ba ba baa

Mm, are you listening, girl?

[Chorus]

Troubles

They seem to follow me

As far as I can see it must be my destiny

Troubles

They carry you around

From the crib into the ground

They will never set you down

[Bridge]

Mm la la la

La la la la

Mm la la la

La la laaa

[Outro]

Are you listening girl?

Ba ba ba baa

Ba ba ba baa

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening girl?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening girl?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening girl?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening girl?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening?

Ba ba ba baa

Are you listening girl?
