"Round And Round" (recorded by Perry Como)
Find a ring and it goes round, round, round
As it rolls along with a happy sound
As it rolls along the ground, ground, ground

"Isle Of Capri"
...
She whispered softly, "It's best not to linger,"
And as I kissed her hand I could see
She wore a plain golden ring on her finger.
'Twas goodbye on the Isle Of Capri.

From Mother Goose:
Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
And she shall have music wherever she goes.

"Wedding Bell Blues" (Marry Me, Bill)
... But am I ever gonna see my wedding ring?

Rabbi Sol, there have been two popular songs called "Band Of Gold." One, from the 1950s, had lyrics such as:
"Don't want the world, to have and hold,
My life has one design:
Just want a little Band Of Gold
To prove that you are mine."
The other, sung by Gladys Knight in the 1960s or 1970s, I think, has the line:
"Now that you're gone, all that's left is a Band Of Gold ... "

There's also an old country song called "Third Finger, Left Hand," which is about a wedding ring.
