I have a friend who, when he proposed to his wife, presented her with a regular appropriate sized hose clamp. She got it of course, and almost 30 years later, they are still married. Helps to marry someone that gets your weirdness it seems..
You can't afford no ring You can't afford no ring I shouldn't be wearing white and you can't afford no ring
You finally took my hand You finally took my hand It took a nip of gin But you finally took my hand You can't afford no ring You can't afford no ring I shouldn't be wearing white and you can't afford no ring
Mama don't approve Mama don't approve Daddy says he's the best in town And mama don't approve You can't afford no ring You can't afford no ring I shouldn't be wearing white and you can't afford no ring
Baby's on its way Baby's on its way Say I do and kiss me quick 'Cause baby's on its way
I shouldn't be wearing white and you can't afford no ring
OK, I'm back - you miss me? Yeah, that's what I thought :/.....
Anyhow, my wife actually got upset with me when she found the receipt for her engagement ring. Said I spent too much. Our bands are just plain gold though. Tasteful and simple is better.

Our wedding rings are actually from WM. Why yes, we are white trash--thanks for noticing! ;)
