A                            E            A
She's been dancing all night long with my man
        E                                  A
Well I thought about cutting in, aw but I ca-ha-an't
             D
'Cause I'm gonna sit right here
               A
And empty this ashtray in her beer
        B7                                  E
I can't wait to see her drinking from that can

[Chorus]
N.C.           D                           A
I'm sitting on Ruby's stool right next to Bill
          E                                    A
She likes breaking old Bill's heart, she always will
A           D                                         A
Honky tonk girl oughta know better than to break the rules
        E                                      A
I'm fed up with her and I'm sitting on Ruby's stool

[Verse 2]
A                E                 A
Everybody always gives her lots of space
                  E                 A
No one would ever dare get in her face
        D
I ain't never been one to fight
     A
But friends, tonight's the night
             B7                      E
I'm just the one that'll put her in her place

[Chorus]
N.C.           D                           A
I'm sitting on Ruby's stool right next to Bill
          E                                    A
She likes breaking old Bill's heart, she always will
A           D                                         A
Honky tonk girl oughta know better than to break the rules
        E                                      A
I'm fed up with her and I'm sitting on Ruby's stool

[Chorus]
N.C.           D                           A
I'm sitting on Ruby's stool right next to Bill
          E                                    A
She likes breaking old Bill's heart, she always will
A           D                                         A
Honky tonk girl oughta know better than to break the rules
        E                                      A
I'm fed up with her and I'm sitting on Ruby's stool
        E                               A
I don't like her so I'm sitting on Ruby's stool

[Spoken Outro]
N.C.
She's an old battle-ax to begin with
Nobody in this little tavern likes her
I don't know why she hangs around here, ahh the boys do
I see why they like her, we all know why they like her
