LEAVE ME ALONE (RUBY RED DRESS) Helen Reddy Words and music by Linda Laurie
Big ole ruby red dress wanders round the town Talkin to herself now, sometimes sitten down Don't you get too close now, ruby runs away Poor ole ruby red dress born on a sorry day I can hear her say
CHORUS:
Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone Please leave me alone now, leave me alone Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me Leave me alone won't you leave me alone Please leave me alone, no leave me alone Leave me along, just leave me alone, oh leave me
Big ole ruby red dress, everybody laughs Say she's got no future and never made no past Something hurt that ruby, shomething she can't bear Ya look at her real close now, you see a little tear When she says now
CHORUS
Some folks say some farm boy up from Tennessee Taught it all to Ruby, then just let her be Her daddy tried to hide it, tried to keep things cool But something happened to Ruby, she broke down to a fool who just said now
