[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
"Ruby Ann took the hand
Of this poor poor man
Ain't true love a funny thing?"
[Refrain]
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!
[Bridge]
Well your money can't buy
If your power can't hold
You can't romance your fame
[Chorus]
Ruby Ann took the hand
Of this poor poor man
Ain't true love a funny thing?
[Refrain]
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!
[Bridge]
Well your money can't buy
If your power can't hold
You can't romance your fame
[Chorus / Outro]
Ruby Ann took the hand
Of this poor poor man
Ain't true love a funny thing?
Ruby Ann took the hand
Of this poor poor man
Ain't true love a funny thing?
