Good News Travels Fast
One, and two, and three, and a-four!
Shorty ran through the door o' the local waterhole
Yeah, the Ruby's back in town, yes, I heard it on the radio
Everyone a-disappeared and that's a fact
When Ruby's in town, good news travels fast
'Cause she smokes filtered cigarettes and she loves to rock 'n roll (rock n' roll)
She likes the last row in the dark a-near the picture show (o-ho!)
She says the only thing that's better is my drop top Cadillac (woo)
Ruby's good news and good news travels fast (woo!)
Well, I finished my beer, stepped outside to take a look around
They had a nine-piece band and the mayor was rollin' around
Well, they give me the key to the city and a front page flash (woo)
Ruby's good news and a-good news travels fast
Oh now, smokin' filter cigarettes and she loves to rock 'n roll (rock n' roll)
She likes the last row in the dark a-near the picture show
(y'know what that means)
Well, the only thing that's better is my drop top Cadillac (look out!)
Good news travels fast (uh-huh)
(Ooh, good news; Ooh, good news)
(Ooh, good news; Ooh, good news)
(Ooh, good news; Ooh, good news)
(Ooh, good news; Ooh, good news)
(Ooh, good news; Ooh, good news)
(Ooh, good news; Ooh, good news)
Ruby!
