Shopping With Ruby

I spent my day shopping with Ruby I find her an absolute pain We walked into a chain store And she bumped into an old flame. Wayne was a chatter box from Spain He followed Ruby around the store And jumbled up my name That really got my goat, and drove me insane. Ruby ran from lane to lane exclaiming his name She bumped into a trolley and her foot had a sprain With support from the old flame and me The whole day turned out to be a drain. She insisted she carry on shopping As she said there was no one to blame We grew tired of being her crutch This was going to be a long day, what a shame.
