PUT A RING ON MY FINGER
(Robert Duke)

Les Paul & Mary Ford - 1958
Tommy Steele - 1958



Just put a ring on my finger
A kiss on my cheek
And you can bet your life
I'll marry you in the best side of a week

Just say you love me
Be faithful and true
And there's nothing in this great big world
I wouldn't do for you

Now some folks are so bashful
When it comes to making love
Some folks much too forward
And others need a shove

I studied love most carefully
And this way you can't miss
Offer me all your love
A ring and a kiss

Just put a ring on my finger
A kiss on my cheek
And you can bet your life
I'll marry you in the best side of a week

Just say you love me
Be faithful and true
And there's nothing in this great big world
I wouldn't do for you

As recorded by TOMMY STEELE under
the title "PUT A RING ON HER FINGER"



Just put a ring on her finger
A kiss on her cheek
And you can bet your life
She'll marry you in the best side of the week

Just say you love her
Be faithful and true
And there's nothin' in this great big world
She would-a-not do for you

Now some folks are so bashful
When it comes to making love
Some folks much too forward
And others need a shove

I studied love most carefully
And this way you can't miss
Offer her all your love
A ring and a kiss

Just put a ring on her finger
A kiss on her cheek
And you can bet your life
She'll marry you in the best side of the week

Just say you love her
Be faithful and true
And there's nothin' in this great big world
She wouldn't do for you

(Just put a ring on her finger)  Yeah!
(A kiss on her cheek)  On her cheek!
(And you can bet your life she'll marry you)
(In the best side of a week)  Oh, yeah!

(Just say that you love her)
(Faithful and true)
(And there's nothin' in this great big world)
(She wouldn't do for you)

She wouldn't do for you
There's nothin' in this great big world
She wouldn't do for you
