Rings of Gold

(Gene Thomas)

Waylon Jennings & Anita Carter



I remember when you said

With this ring I Thee wed

Now you've gone betrayed my trust

Rings of gold have turned to rust.



Tears can't wash away the sin

Love that's dead can't live again

Knowing there's no hope for us

Turns these rings of gold to rust.



Love before was clean and pure

Never more can I be sure

You will not betray my trust

Rings of gold have turned to rust.



Plans we made just yesterday

Sands of time have chipped away

Now they've crumbled into dust

Rings of gold have turned to rust.



Rings of gold have turned to rust...
