The Truth About Ruth Lyrics

Cover art for The Truth About Ruth lyrics by Morrissey

I'm not sure why barley anyone has commented but it sort of seems obvious that Ruth is transgender perhaps? Anyway there might also be a tenuous link to 'Gloria' by Patti Smith (Morrissey mentioned 'horses' in his autobiography) 'Marie, Ruth but to tell you the truth, I didn't hear them I didn't see' All in all one of his weakest songs though.
