            QUEEN OF THE NEON

Ruby comes into the "Palace"
Most every night of the week
Everyone knows her around here
And that's how she wants it to be

     There ain't no strangers in this place for long
     She makes 'em feel right at home

          She's the Queen of the Neon
          The "Belle of the Ball"
          And she glows in the flourescent light
          She might be ordinary
          But not till tomorrow
          She's the Queen of the Neon tonight

She's got a son in Nevada
They say he's a gambler by trade
I'll bet she misses her family
But Ruby, she won't move away

     We won't be losin' her anytime soon
     She's made herself right at home

          She's the Queen of the Neon
          The "Belle of the Ball"
          And she glows in the flourescent light
          She might be ordinary
          But not till tomorrow
          She's the Queen of the Neon tonight

          She might be ordinary
          But not till tomorrow
          She's the Queen of the Neon tonight

MY OL' STOMPIN' GROUND
HONKY-TONK OPERA
IF I KNEW AN ANGEL
QUEEN OF THE NEON
OUT OF THE QUESTION
THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY
EMPTY BOTTLES
I'LL LET THE JUKEBOX DO MY TALKIN'
A WOMAN LIKE THAT
HONEY, DON'T YOU DARE
THE RECIPE
JESUS IN A BOTTLE
I CAN'T GO HOME
YOU CAN'T STAY HERE

Notes
 

  

I wrote this song alone . . . some of it in my apartment, some in my car, wherever I was . . . and some of it while I was doing temp work (or I suppose, more accurately when I WASN'T doing temp work . . .)   I can remember sitting at a desk in one of the offices at TSU while I worked out the lyrics to the chorus of this tune.  There is no real-life specific "Ruby", but she certainly reminds me of some of the characters that I've met out in the honky-tonks. 
One of my favorite places while I was in California was the "Cowboy Palace" in Chatsworth, CA . . .
(it's been used as a 'honky-tonk location' in a lot of movies).   I borrowed part of the name for this
fictional locale.  She might have also been at Cousin's, The Longhorn, the BanDar, or a few other of my favorite California honky-tonks back before I moved to Nashville.
