My friend reminded me that the chorus of the song he and I remember is: I gave her the ring and she gave me the finger, And that finger stinger lingers like a ringer'round my heart. Could there be two tunes that have the same title? We both remember it being performed by a group called "Bottle Hill". The guitarist for the group was a guy named Walt Michael who is a nationally-known hammered dulcimer player. My friend said he asked Walt about the song and Walt denied any knowledge of it. Of course, it's been over 30 years since I heard the song. Roger in Baltimore
