Текст Charlie Farley – The Ring

Well there’s a ring of rocks on the hill that I got from the creek
Me and dad we hold ’em up here in his old jeep
We put a few logs in that he cut from the hardwood tree
Put diesel on it, light it up and talk around that fire for hours

There’s a ring where we stayed up all those nights
Telling stories ’bout the times we had
The good, the bad and all the in between
There’s a ring where I drank my first cold beer
Baby it was all those years ago
But hey you know, it still means everything
There’s a ring

She was out of my league or at least that’s why I think
Ain’t no way a girl like her would like a guy like me
Luckily I was wrong but I still tell her she’s blind
I don’t know how I got her but I thank God she’s mine
We started out as kids that wouldn’t let go
Now we got a couple of kids that make this house home
Everything I am is what’s on her left hand
If you wanna know how this boy became a man

There’s a ring, the one that we picked out
And it’s still shining right now
The way it did the day she said I do to me
There’s a ring, where I placed it on her hand
Swore I’ll always be her man
From here on out for all the world to see
There’s a ring

Now as I look around this place
There ain’t an empty space
And daddy’s here, it’s great
The kids have kids of their own
It’s hard to believe they’re grown
Huh, how time flies
And as a tear starts to come to my eyes, I’m filled with pride
‘Cause I realize just how lucky I am
It ain’t hard to understand
No, just take a look around

There’s a ring, all the way from young to old
Seems like everyone we know is here
It’s fifty years, our friends and family
There’s a ring, man it’s what life’s all about
Keeps this whole world spinning round
And years from now, it’ll still mean everything
There’s a ring
There’s a ring
There’s a ring
