Song
What year did the song "Ruby" which Mel Tillis wrote for Kenny Rogers become a hit?
There are two different ways to answer that question here, one is to go to the list of top artists and find "Kenny Rodgers". The other is to look at the site index for the word "Ruby".
Either route will take you to the page listing Kenny Rodgers' songs. Which shows that the song "Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town" was a hit in 1969.
Johnny Darrell and Waylon Jennings both released versions before "Kenny Rogers & the First Edition" released it.
