You Am I
"Nuthin's Ever Gonna Be The Same Again"

Oh sweet Ruby girl
Put your arms ‘round my neck and ring like a bell
Meet me Rosita, kiss me Carika
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again, hey

Now look at those two just dancing there
The ordeal over in the old town square
This crisp white shirt won’t sweep up the dirt
And nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again

Oh sweet Ruby girl
Put your arms ‘round my neck and ring like a bell
Meet me Rosita, kiss me Carika
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again, hey

Yeh, now listen to that song he’s a-tryin’ to shout
With the Cuban heel boots and his ass hangin’ out
A sound so ancient, so meat and potatoes, yeh
But nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again

Oh sweet Ruby girl
Mama’s kisses taste like caramel
Meet me Rosita, kiss me Carika
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again

Oh, nobody understands a word we’re sayin’
If there’s somethin’ crumblin’ like a fruitcake, sugar
Then keep drinkin’ it, get the interpretatin’

If the poem’s all sore you get that, learn to play guitar
Quit that phrasing and parading and get that ass outta the bar
But learn how to swing and get their hands off their things
Yeh nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again

No bottle of wine just don’t hit me the same
Unless it softens the frame around, oh, that face
I learn how to swing and get my hands off my things, yeh
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again, sugar
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again
Nuthin’s ever gonna be, hey, hey

Oh sweet Ruby girl
Mama’s kisses taste like caramel
Meet me Rosita, my precious Carika
Nuthin’s ever gonna, hey, hey, hey

Oh sweet Ruby girl
Put your arms ‘round my neck and ring like a bell
Now my stomach’s tight, and I’m as thirsty as hell
But nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again
Nuthin’s ever gonna be the same again
