Ruby Soho Lyrics

Echos of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
Havin' a party up next door
But I'm sittin here alone
Two lovers in the bedroom
And the others start to shout
All I got is this blank stare
And that don't carry no clout at all

Destination unknown
Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby soho
Destination unknown
Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby soho

He's singin' and she's there to lend a hand
He's seen his name on the marquee
But she will never understand
Once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye
Embraces with a warm gesture, it's time
Time to say good-bye

Destination unknown
Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby soho
Destination unknown
Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby soho

Ruby's heart ain't bleedin'
'Cause she knows the feeling is gone
She's not the only one who knew there's somethin' wrong
Her lover's in the distance
As she wipes a tear from her eye
Ruby's fading out, she disappears - it's time
Time to say good-bye

Destination unknown
Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby soho
Destination unknown
Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby soho

Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby soho!

The 'guy in the band' is actually Rancid's own bassist Matt Freeman (fucking best bassest in the world) and he didn't know it was about him until a few years ago.

I think this song is about a girl who is in love with a guy who's in a band that's making it big. They get in fights about it, and he has to leave her again to go tour or whatever, and she's upset. He feels that this time their goodbye is for good.
