Bloodshot Ruby Songtext
von Mother Love Bone

Well, Ruby′s now 23
A Coney Island boardwalk queen
She's selling favors for love

She′s been on the street
Since nearly 17
Paying the price no one should have to pay, no way
You see, her daddy was a devil man
Where love and pain went hand in hand
One day, he just kicked her out the door

Out to the street
He's a dollar-making markiep, boy
Where she works and lives today, no

Singing
Bloodshot Ruby's eyes, no, no
Tall man twice my size, yeah
Daddy was a devil man
Love and pain went hand in hand


She′s been on the street
And Joe′s selling more markiep, boy
Smoking whiskey out the door
Out to the street, oh
Coney Island boardwalk queen
Where she lives and breathes today

Singing
A bloodshot Ruby's eyes, no, no
She got a pride that was twice my size
Her daddy was a devil man
And she never told me no lies, oh no

Bloodshot Ruby′s eyes
A bloodshot Ruby
That's right, Markiep
Tell me your story

Woah, and singing
Bloodshot Ruby′s eyes
She got a pride that was twice my size
Daddy was a devil man
And she never told me no lies
She got, she got
