Lyrics
This one here belonged to Ma
That one there was worn by Pa
Little crimson rubies that mate so well
A pretty story tell
Set in style a trifle old
Just a simple band of gold
These are all my fortune
These jewels rare
They make a loving pair
Refrain
Two little ruby rings are all that I own
Two little friends, when I’m alone
Each little sparkle is a smile and a tear
Teeming with mem’ries dear
Thoughts that linger long
Like a sweet old song
One little heart can dream the dearest of things
With two little ruby rings
Performance
