Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
When the Ring on Your Finger Turns Green

When the Ring on Your Finger Turns Green

When the Ring on Your Finger Turns Green

cho:    He's just leadin' you on
        Honey, he'll be gone
        Before the ring on your finger turns green.

Your new love is the playboy kind
He's not lookin' for the ties that bind;
He'll leave you with a tortured mind
Before the ring on your finger turns green.

He's fickle, cheap and phony, too
Just like the ring he gave to you
I know, 'cause I've been through it, too,
When the ring on your finger turns green.
