Original Lyrics
Translation in Spanish
verse
You've painted up your lips
Te has pintado los labios
Rolled and curled your tinted hair
Enrolla y riza tu cabello teñido
verse
Ruby, are you contemplating
Ruby, ¿estás pensando en
Going out somewhere?
Salir a algún sitio
The shadow on the wall
La sombra en la pared
Tells me the sun is going down
Me dice que el sol se está poniendo
chorus
Oh, Ruby
Oh, Ruby
Don't take your love to town
No te lleves tu amor a la cuidad
verse
It wasn't me
No fui yo
That started that old crazy Asian war
El que empezó esa estúpida vieja guerra asiática
But I was proud to go
Pero estoy orgulloso de ir
And do my patriotic chore
Y hacer mi tarea patriótica
And yes, it's true that
Y si, es cierto que
I'm not the man I used to be
No soy ya el hombre que era
chorus
Oh, Ruby, I still need some company
Oh Ruby, todavía necesito compañía
verse
It's hard to love a man
Es duro amar a un hombre
Whose legs are bent and paralyzed
Cuyas piernas están dobladas y paralizadas
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age
Soy consciente de las necesidades de una mujer de tu edad
Ruby, I realized
Ruby, lo entiendo
But it won't be long
Pero no pasará mucho tiempo
I've heard them say until I'm not around
Hasta que les oiga murmurar
chorus
Oh, Ruby
Oh, Ruby
Don't take your love to town
No te lleves tu amor a la cuidad
verse
She's leaving now 'cause
Ella se va en este momento porque
I just heard the slamming of the door
Acabo de oír el portazo
The way I know I've heard it slam 100 times before
De la forma que lo he oído cientos de veces en otras ocasiones
And if I could move I'd get my gun
Y si pudiera moverme, tomaría mi arma
And put her in the ground
Y ponerla en el suelo
chorus
Oh, Ruby
Oh, Ruby
Don't take your love to town
No te lleves tu amor a la cuidad
outro
Oh, Ruby, for God's sake, turn around
Oh Ruby, por el amor De Dios, date la vuelta.
