I don’t know how to tell her I didn’t get that raise in pay today. I know how much she wanted the dress In Baker’s window, and it breaks my heart To see her have to wait… And cancel all her plans she made to celebrate.
But I know that I can count on her to take it With a smile and not a frown. She knows that life Has its little ups and downs, Like Ponies on a merry-go-round. And no one grabs a brass ring every time She don’t mind. She don’t mind.
She wears a gold ring on her finger, Oh, and it’s mine.
The new house plans we have so long, I guess will gather dust another year. And the daffodils are blooming She planted way last fall Upon the hill, and over by the gate. And Lord knows I hate to say again we’ll have to wait.

She wears a gold ring on her finger, Oh, and it’s mine!
