The lyric isn't "Detours, fences - I get defensive". It's "BE TOO EXPENSIVE - I get defensive". |

| Kenny Rogers – Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town Lyrics

I've listened to this song since I was a kid but somehow never knew there was a "rebuttal song" to Ruby. For those like me who don't know...
"Billy, I've Got To Go To Town" by Geraldine Stevens was released in 1969 and is basically Ruby's side of the story. She denies ever cheating on him, tries to convince him that she still loves him and will never leave and scolds him for his excessive jealousy and lack of trust in her. Ruby's never does give a specific reason for why she needs to go to town or what she'll be doing while she's there. However imo, it kinda sounds like she's just going to work since Billy is unable to after becoming paralyzed in Vietnam. Apparently, there's also another Ruby rebuttal song from Ruby's sons perspective released in 1972 called Ruby Dean by Bobby Womack. Lol I guess everyone was trying to get a piece of Ruby's success! Lol |

@[Black:47291] Dahlia I'm little late with this comment but if anyone still cares.. the word the Rastaman is saying is actually "bombaclot". It's Jamaican slang that basically means motherf*cker. :) |
