Ruby Let down your golden hair When I'm standing at the bottom of your stairs Ruby I can see your TV on But the people there Yeah, they flicker then they're gone So let down your golden hair for me tonight Let down your golden hair for me to climb Just like an old time telegraph man I came here with a simple job to do And that news comin' down the wire says That your bed's on fire and I'm tryin' to get a message through to you Ruby You ain't lonely yet with your crystals And your Russian cigarettes Ruby Haven't you heard before What use is a tower when there isn't any door? So let down your golden hair for me tonight Let down your golden hair for me to climb Just like an old time telegraph man I came here with a simple job to do And that news comin' down the wire says That your head's on fire and I'm Tryin' to get a message through to you So let down your golden hair for me tonight Let down your golden hair for me to climb Just like an old time telegraph man I came here with a simple job to do And that news comin' down the wire says That your world's on fire and I'm Tryin' to get a message through to you Yes, I'm tryin' to get a message through to you
