Up The Ladder To The Roof
Ruthie got a job
And nothing went right
She woke up in a nervous sweat
In the middle of the night
And every morning
Of every day
Ruthie she would end up crying, Lord
And the boss would come and say
Hey if you抮e gonna lose your mind
Don抰 do it on company time
Aw girl you抮e gonna lose some pay
If you wanna behave that way
On company time
Ruthie抯 got a kid
And he just turned two
Late last year his daddy walked out

when he toar me up inside

so why, why do you tear me up,
why dont you keep my trust,
why dont you love me much
so whys the pain,
the pain is so deep inside
its so very hard to hide,

but now i see
you never really love me,
you never really cared,
so why should i even try,
to think of the things we shared,
chorus

i gave you all the things i owed
i gave you all my heart and soul,
i gave you everything i wanted too
chorus
but now i see
