Plain Gold Ring (Live At Carnegie Hall, New York, 1964) - Nina Simone

Plain gold ring on his finger he wore

It was where everyone could see

He belonged to somebody but wasn't me

On his hand was a plain gold ring

On his hand was a plain gold ring

Plain gold ring has a story to tell

It was one that I knew very well

In my heart it will never be spring

Long as he wears a plain gold ring

Long as he wears a plain gold ring

Long as he wears a plain gold ring

Long as he wears a plain gold ring

Oh oh

When nighttime comes a calling on me

I know why I will never be free

I can't stop these teardrops of mine

I'm gonna love him till the end of time

Plain gold ring has but one thing to say

I'll remember till my dying day

In my heart it will never be spring

In my heart it will never be spring

Long as he wears a plain gold ring

Long as he wears a plain gold ring

Long as he wears a plain gold ring

Plain gold ring on his finger he wore

Plain gold ring on his finger he wore

Plain gold ring on his finger he wore
