All Dressed Up With Nowhere To Go lyrics

The sign says, `families welcome`
At the Oaks Retirement Home
But mostly, no one comes `cept on the weekends
Ruby Wilson lives in 303
Where she spends most her time
But, it`s almost noon on Sunday
And she`s been sitting in the lobby since nine

Chorus:
She`s all dressed up In her best hat and gloves
She`s all dressed up
Watching and waiting, but nobody comes
Some days sure are lonely days
And time can move so slow
When you`re all dressed up
With nowhere to go

Ruby watches all the others
Leaving with their families
The nurse tells her, it`s time to come to dinner
She says she`s expecting company
They`re just running late
But, the nurse knows the truth too well
She just sighs and walks away

Repeat chorus
