Ruby was a dreamer

Ruby was a wild child nobody could hold her down She was the daughter of an angel but the devil seemed to get her somehow Folks called her a red neck told her she was way out of hand She was heading down a road to no where into no man's land Ruby was a dreamer, dreamed about a brighter day "If I ever get a chance to make it gonna have to make it pay She was running every red light driving down the road to hell But out there on the highway was the answer to this tolling bell She said "Get this 18 wheeler on the go" "Wanna wake up in the morning in a new town I don't know" "I wanna be free when the sun goes down" "But I'm never gonna get there while I'm living this old town" So fire it up Shift some gears Hit the road Cause you'll never haul anything heavier than my sad soul Finally that day came, knew she had to be on her way Left a note for Mumma said "I've got to be leaving today" Slipping down the back streets down beside the old hotel She stood out on the highway found the answer to her tolling bell She said "Get this 18 wheeler on the go" "Wann a wake up in the morning in a new town I don't know" "I wanna be free when the sun goes down" "But I'm never gonna get there while I'm living this old town" So fire it up Shift some gears Hit the road Cause you'll never haul anything heavier than my sad soul She said "Get this 18 wheeler on the go" "Wanna wake up in the morning in a new town I don't know" "I wanna be free when the sun goes down" "But I'm never gonna get there while I'm living this old town" So fire it up Shift some gears Hit the road Cause you'll never haul anything heavier than my sad soul
