The Ring Lyrics - Like A Rock - Bob Seger

By the light of the moon 

To a 50's tune 

He pledged his love to her 

A girl so rare 

A girl so fair 

The girl for him for sure 

He could see himself getting up every mornin' 

For the rest of his life 

Just to look in those eyes so blue 

It was all he ever wanted to do 

She was all he'd ever need to see him through

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

They were still in their teens 

When he gave her the ring 

They were married late one May 

And they moved into a little house 

On the far end of town 

Out by the big highway 

And all through the days 

And all through the nights 

The cars and trucks rolled on by 

And he slept through it all just fine 

Every night he slept just fine 

Sometimes she'd stare at the stars out the window 

Sometimes she'd walk `neath the moon 

Sometimes she'd sit there just watching him sleeping 

Hoping the dawn would come soon 

Photos 

She'd done well in school 

She'd followed the rules 

And she'd always stood out from the rest 

She'd go off to college 

And work her way through 

Then move to some city out west 

She had it all planned 

She'd have her career 

She'd have all of the things that she'd always lacked 

She'd wake up one morning all packed 

And leave here and never look back 

Most of her friends thought it soon would be over 

Not many thought it would last 

Most seemed to think they were all wrong for each other 

And soon it would pass - soon it would pass 

Now twenty years have gone 

And her kids have moved on 

And she's still on the far end of town 

Her youngest - she's livin' somewhere in L.A. 

And her oldest - he works on a nearby farm 

Her husband comes home 

And they talk over supper 

He's usually the first to turn in 

Another day comes to an end 

Another day just ends 

And sometimes in the wee hours when the traffic dies down 

She'll hear the sound of some bird on the wing 

And she'll look out the window and she'll look at his picture 

But not at the ring - not at the ring 

She never looks at the ring
