Ruby Tiger

Verse 1

Spotted coat

Yellow eyes in the tall grass

She is coming through the holler

Stalking

Moving like a heavy dream

Down where the creek bed dried up

Gold

Bright gold

Chorus

Ruby Tiger

Ruby Tiger

Walking on the ridge

Walking on the ridge

Ruby Tiger

Ruby Tiger

Wilder than the briar

Wilder than the briar

Post-Chorus

Oh Ruby

Oh Ruby

Tiger

Tiger

Verse 2

Dusty boots

Left a trail by the pine tree

Claws out

Sharp and silver in the moon

She won't ever settle down

Running

Fast

She won't ever come to heel

Hungry heart and heavy paws

Chorus

Ruby Tiger

Ruby Tiger

Walking on the ridge

Walking on the ridge

Ruby Tiger

Ruby Tiger

Wilder than the briar

Wilder than the briar

Post-Chorus

Oh Ruby

Oh Ruby

Tiger

Tiger

Bridge

I saw her

I sought her

I lost her

Shadow in the timberland

Never gonna catch that girl

Vanished in the evening haze

Chorus

Ruby Tiger

Ruby Tiger

Walking on the ridge

Walking on the ridge

Ruby Tiger

Ruby Tiger

Wilder than the briar

Wilder than the briar

Outro

Gone

She is gone

Ruby

Ruby

Tiger

Tiger

Gone again
