Hank Snow - Broken Wedding Ring lyrics

A cowboy with his sweetheart stood beneath a starlit sky

Tomorrow he was leaving for the lonesome prairie wide

She said, "I'll be your loving bride when you return someday"

He handed her a broken ring and to her he did say.

"You'll find upon that ring sweetheart my name engraved in gold

And I shall keep the other half which bears your name you know"

He went away to ride and toil this cowboy brave and bold

But long he stayed and while he strayed the maiden's love grew cold.

Three years had passed, he did not come, and Nell will wed tonight

Her father said an Earl would make her happy home so bright

The lights were gaily glowing as they stood there side by side

"Let's drink a toast to this young man and to his lovely bride"

Just then there stood within the door a figure tall and slim

A handsome cowboy was their guest and slowly he walked in

"I'll drink with you a toast" said he, and quickly in her glass

He dropped his half of wedding ring, then anxiously he watched.

She tipped her glass and from her lips a ring fell shining bright

The token she had longed to see lay there beneath the light

"Though years have been between us dear, love won our last long fight,

It's you my cowboy sweetheart and my Jack I'll wed tonight"
