The Broken Wedding Ring - Hank Snow
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
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
