F# B
The granite damp of Aberdeen
E C#
grows warm and soft almost serene
F# B
as a jolly band of pickled chums
E C#
cross Union Street, all paved with gum
F# G#
sudden brothers in Brahms and Liszt
C# D# G#m
just one more, no I insist
(Bm) E B G#m
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
E B F#
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
Ruby and Roy what a wonderful pair
give me goosey bumps and sticky up hair
oh so fun just to be there
a live legend with tales to share
what more you want you old rock 'n' roll boy
red-hot ruby and red haired Roy
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
C#m7 G#m
Oh what a magical night
Bm E A G#m G
ruby and Roy by candlelight
F# Bm
a wondrous thing, a dream come true
D F#
laugh a line, vindaloo

Ruby and Roy what a fabulous team
go together like peaches and stuff
and don't say thanks what a joy it's been
you can't just stop 'cos you've had enough
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
hit me Roy, hit me Roy
hit em Roy one more time
Bombay duck and a pint of wine
Oh what a glorious night
ruby and Roy were dynamite
the shaggy dogs, the poppadoms
the heart attacks, the chili bombs
Hit me Roy, I'm not quite done
tarka dahl and a cleansing rum
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
Hit me Roy, hit me
Hit me Roy, count me in
a salted nut and a quart of gin
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
Hit me Roy, hit me Roy
ooh hit me
