Ren Geisick - Oh Ruby

Just 23, leaving home
The world is big she's ready to roam
From Oklahoma to the coast

She'll send a picture to let 'em know
How she's doin' in California
What's she doin' in California?

Oh Ruby
You said goodbye
Oh Ruby
It's time to fly
Oh Ruby
Oh Ruby

A secretary on the base
A woman strong and full of grace
She made her home in Monterey

And met a man he was just a boy
And overwhelmed her with his joy
But he had a secret pain

Oh Ruby
Where's your home?
Oh Ruby
On your own
Oh Ruby
Oh Ruby

With a family and anchors deep
A husband she's not meant to keep
And she won't roam the way she planned

But with a smile to light the room
She'll stand tall despite the gloom
And show the world she'll never fall

Oh Ruby
Oh Ruby
Oh Ruby
Oh Ruby
Oh Ruby
Oh Ruby
