I Got Love For You, Ruby

(album: Closeup - 1975)

I was told that love had meaning
But I guess I wanted more
Little girls just left me steaming
Running out the back door
Ruby came and put it to me
Like to take my breath away
Burning kisses taste like fire
Light me up each day

I got love for you, Ruby
Wanna really do you well
You're like a warm Kentucky morning
You're my wish in every wishing well
And I need you, Ruby
Like a sparrow needs to fly
But I'd rather fall to Earth
Than make you cry
I got love for you, Ruby
I got love for you, love for you, Ruby

Softly raining Sunday morning
Nothing better I love so
Lying 'round in bed with Ruby
Listening to the water flow
Often times she'll catch me staring
Loving her, I guess it shows
Guess we're just alucky pair
And that's the way it goes

I got love for you, Ruby
Wanna really do you well
You're like a warm Kentucky morning
You're my wish in every wishing well
And I need you, Ruby
Like a sparrow needs to fly
But I'd rather fall to Earth
Than make you cry
I got love for you, Ruby
I got love for you, love for you, Ruby

(I got love for you, baby
Wanna really do you well)
You're like a warm Kentucky morning
You're my wish in every wishing well
(Love for you, Ruby)
I got love for you, love for you, Ruby
(I got love for you baby
Wanna really do you well)
You're like a warm Kentucky morning
You're my wish in every wishing well
(Love or you, Ruby)
