Sally...what you doing here?
Sally...what you doing here?

Left a jug among the reeds and corn
Big Jim bible with its pages torn
Tourniquet tight 'round my throwing arm
Jump in the briar
Ruby lays across the bed
You're coming home

Break a fire with a paper match
Burn a tatoo on a guy with an eye patch
Cut your name off my wooden leg
Drop it in the coal
Ruby lays across the bed
You're coming home

Stroke the bottom of a sterno cup
Plywood hand-out going 'cross and up
Jack your coat against a backroom wall
Hand on a sleeve
Ruby lays across the bed
You're coming home

A bag of crows on the frontyard fence
Chicken-head walking stick paint no pretence
Cat knocked-out teeth can't chew on a bone
Gimp down the hole
Ruby lays across the bed
You're coming home

Hopped a mule with a rail-tie sack
"No, brother," Jimmy says,
"She ain't coming back"
Strawman the piney trading gum for wire
I waited a long time
Ruby lays across the bed
You're coming home
Sally...what you doing here?
