Ruby Soho Lyrics
[Verse 1: Tim Armstrong]
Echoes of reggae
Comin' through my bedroom wall
Havin' a party up next door
But I'm sittin' here all alone
Two lovers in the bedroom
And the other started to shout
All I got is this blank stare
And that don't carry no clout at all
Go
[Chorus]
Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
[Verse 2: Tim Armstrong]
He's singin'
And she's there to lend a hand
He's seen his name on the marquee
But she will never understand
Once again he's leavin'
And she's there with a tear in her eye
Embraces with a warm gesture, it's time
Time to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
[Interlude]
[Verse 3: Tim Armstrong]
Ruby's heart ain't beatin'
'Cause she knows the feelin' is gone
She's not the only one who knew that
There's somethin' wrong
Her lover's in the distance
As she wipes a tear from her eye
Ruby's fadin' out, she disappears
It's time, time to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
[Bridge]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
[Outro]
(Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho) Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho
(Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho) Destination unknown
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho

What have reviewers said about this song?
Entertainment Weekly printed in 1995:
Rancid Lead singer Tim Armstrong skillfully codirects, capturing his band’s boys-in-the-clubhouse fervor. By allowing the song to dictate the editing rhythm, and by alternating the band members hanging out with close-ups of them screaming the hooky chorus, he c...
