Ruby Madge And Mable
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes true love has to choose to do what it don't want to do
And sometimes patience has to give up a hanging on
Darling I'll be far away and you'll be wishing I had stayed
After Ruby Madge And Mable send you home
After Ruby settled down and Madge moved back to her hometown
After Mable says you're fool leave me alone
You'll find out how much it hurts and just how much a dream is worth
After Ruby Madge And Mable send you home
[ piano ]
You'll find out what lonely mean but you won't find the broken chain
That once bound our love together proud and strong
You start talking to the walls and count every tear that falls
After Ruby Madge And Mable send you home
After Ruby settled down...
