Me and the ocean, me and the sea
I don't think so, I don't think it was meant to be
Take me off somewhere cold
Gradually just growing old
And someday maybe make of me an honest man

Yeah? Well

I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town – it's like a joke
I must've had fun ‘cause now I'm broke

Down by the ocean, walk by and see
All these people – they look they look so happy to me
What if all I want in this world
Turned out just to be an honest girl?
Turned out just to make of me an honest man?

Oh yeah? Well

I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town – it's like a joke
I must've had fun ‘cause now I'm broke

I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Life in this town makes it hard to see
Things that are right in front of me

Love in this town – it's like a joke
I must've had fun ‘cause now I'm broke
Life in this town makes it hard to see
Things that are right in front of me
