I said hello to the man that tried to win your hand a long time ago
I tried to smile as he talked of the days when he was your beau
But I could see he was a shamin' me when he talked of his wealth and fame
Ruby Ann took the hand of this poor poor man ain't true love a funny thing
Big man you got money in your hand so what
You're at a table for two but still there's only you big shot
Well your money can't buy if your power can't hold you can't romance your fame
Ruby Ann took the hand of this poor poor man ain't true love a funny thing
[ guitar ]
Big man you got money
Ruby Ann took the hand of this poor poor man ain't true love a funny thing
