Lyrics

Ruby Red

I can hear a sirens song
dancing deep inside my head
I close my eyes and think of her
and those sweet lips of red

Late at night I dream again
As she lays upon this bed
With angel wing she comes to me
My lady Ruby Red

Ruby Red
Ruby Red
With angel wing she comes to me
My lady Ruby Red

Her mother came from Shannon
Her dad from Ballyvaughn
They fell in love on one fine night
Nine months and she was born

The ship left port of Dublin
For dreams that lie ahead
Arrived at Castle Garden where
They named her Ruby Red

Ruby Red
Ruby Red
Arrived at Castle Garden where
They named her Ruby Red

Under Roebling’s bridge we kissed
Her beauty and her charms
That night was cold but we kept warm
I held her in my arms

The way she looked in her white dress
Like a bride if we had wed
I never will forget that day
And her flowing crown of red

Ruby Red
Ruby Red
I never will forget that day
And her flowing crown of red

I still hear a sirens song
Dancing deep inside my head
I close my eyes and think of her
and those sweet lips of red

Late at night I dream again
As she lays upon this bed
With angel wing she comes to me
My lady Ruby Red

Ruby Red
Ruby Red
With angel wings she comes to me
My lady Ruby Red

With angel wings she comes to me
My lady Ruby Red
