Good News Travels Fast

(album: When Two Worlds Collide - 1980)

One, and two, and a-three, and a-four!

Shorty ran through the door of the local waterhole
Yeah the Ruby's back in town, this I heard it on the radio
Everyone a-disappeared and that's a fact
When Ruby's in town, good news travels fast

'Cause she smokes filter cigarettes and she loves to rock 'n roll (rock n' roll)
She likes the last row in the dark a-near the picture show
She says the only thing that's better is my drop top Cadillac
Ruby's good news and good news travels fast (Woo!)

Well, I finished my beer, stepped outside to take a look around
They had a nine piece band and the mayor was rolling around
Well, they give me the key to the city and a front page flash
Ruby's good news and a-good news travels fast

Oh now, builds and smokes filter cigarettes and she loves to rock 'n roll
She likes the last row in the dark a-near the picture show
(Y'know what that means)
Well, the only thing that's better is my drop top Cadillac (look out!)
Good news travels fast (uh-huh)

(Ruby!)
