There is such a way. Use the mighty and impressive Ruby2Ruby gem. It's
downright scary.

teh IRB session:

>> class RedWine
>> def drink
>> "glug"
>> end
>> end
=> nil
>> @red_wine = RedWine.new
=> #<RedWine:0x1108514>
>> require 'ruby2ruby'
=> true
>> @red_wine.method(:drink).to_ruby
=> "def drink\n "glug"\nend"
