[00:00.00]The Broken Wedding Ring - Hank Snow
[00:04.87]A cowboy with his sweetheart
[00:08.88]Stood beneath a starlit sky
[00:14.55]Tomorrow he was leaving
[00:18.17]For the lonesome prairie wide
[00:23.92]She said I'll be your loving bride
[00:28.85]When you return someday
[00:33.40]He handed her a broken ring
[00:38.14]And to her he did say
[00:43.07]You'll find upon that ring
[00:45.95]Sweetheart my name engraved in gold
[00:52.00]And I shall keep the other half
[00:56.99]Which bears your name you know
[01:01.99]Three years had passed
[01:04.17]He did not come
[01:06.28]And Nell will wed tonight
[01:11.34]Her father said
[01:13.40]An Earl would make her happy home
[01:18.28]So bright
[01:20.59]The lights were gaily glowing
[01:24.57]As they stood there side by side
[01:30.26]Let's drink a toast to this young man
[01:34.88]And to his lovely bride
[01:47.82]Just then there stood
[01:50.14]Within the door a figure tall and slim
[01:57.11]A handsome cowboy was their guest
[02:01.73]And slowly he walked in
[02:06.68]I'll drink with you a toast
[02:09.81]Said he and quickly in her glass
[02:15.99]He dropped his half of wedding ring
[02:20.22]Then anxiously he watched
[02:25.04]She tipped her glass
[02:27.45]And from her lips a ring
[02:30.63]Fell shining bright
[02:34.20]The token she had longed
[02:37.88]To see lay there beneath the light
[02:43.62]Though years have been between us dear
[02:48.25]Love won our last long fight
[02:52.74]It's you my cowboy sweetheart
[02:56.63]And my Jack I'll wed tonight
