WEAR MY RING AROUND YOUR NECK

Original Elvis Presley version



Won't you wear my ring around your neck
To tell the world I'm yours by heck
Let them see your love for me
And let them see by the ring around your neck

Won't you wear my ring around your neck
To tell the world I'm yours by heck
Let them know I love you so
And let them know by the ring around your neck

Well they say that going steady is not the proper thing
They say that we're too young to know the meaning of a ring
I only know that I love you and that you love me too
So darling please do what I ask of you

Won't you wear my ring around your neck
To tell the world I'm yours by heck
Let them see your love for me
And let them see by the ring around your neck

Well they say that going steady is not the proper thing
They say that we're too young to know the meaning of a ring
I only know that I love you and that you love me too
So darling this is what I beg of you

Won't you wear my ring around your neck
To tell the world I'm yours by heck
Let them know I love you so
And let them know by the ring around your neck
And let them know by the ring around your neck
And let them know by the ring around your neck
Oh yeah
