Golden Ring (original Version) Lyrics - George Jones

George Jones & Tammy Wynette 

In a pawn shop in Chicago 

On a sunny summer day 

A couple gazes at the 

Wedding rings there on display 

She smiles and nods her head 

As he says Honey that's for you 

It's not much but it's the best that I can do 

Golden ring with one tiny little stone 

Waiting there for someone to take it home 

By itself it's just a cold metalic thing 

Only love can make a golden wedding ring.

In a little wedding chapel 

Later on that after noon 

An old up right piano 

Plays that old familiar tune 

Tears roll down her cheeks 

And happy thoughts run through her head 

As he whispers low with this ring I thee wed 

Golden ring with one tiny little stone 

Shining ring now at last it's found a home 

By itself it's just a cold metalic thing 

Only love can make a golden wedding ring 

In a small two room apartment 

As they fight their final round 

He says tou won't admit it 

But I know you're leavin' town 

She says One thing's for certain 

I don't love you anymore 

And throws down the ring 

As she walks out the door 

Photos 

Golden ring with one tiny little stone 

Cast aside like the love that's dead and gone 

By itself it's just a cold metalic thing 

Only love can make a golden wedding ring 

In a pawn shop in Chicago 

On a sunny summer day 

A couple gazes at the 

Wedding rings there on display 

Golden ring...
