Welcome to Music Friday when we bring you awesome songs with jewelry, gemstones or precious metals in the title or lyrics. Today, Chris Lucas and Preston Brust of LoCash pour on the love in their 2016 release, “Ring on Every Finger.”

In the song, the country pop duo sets the scene for an over-the-top marriage proposal. Instead of going down on one knee, they promise to go down on two. And instead of offering a single engagement ring, they plan to put a ring on every finger.

They sing, “I ain’t gettin’ down on one knee / Girl, I’m gettin’ on two / Might be over the top / But I tell you what I’m gonna do/ I’ll put on a ring on every finger / To show that I’m legit / Gonna try my last name on ya girl / Just to see if it fits.”

Josh Kear, who wrote the song with Thomas Rhett and Jesse Frasure, told Billboard magazine that the song is based on this premise: “If one ring says I’ll love you forever, what would a ring on every finger mean?”

Kear and his collaborators also peppered the banjo-backed song with romantic bridal imagery.

Kear commented, “Most guys want to give their dream girl the wedding of their dreams, so I think men care about making women happy on their wedding day. Maybe less about the specifics and more about giving their bride the day they deserve.”

“Ring on Every Finger” was released in November of 2016 as the third single from The Fighters album. The song rose to #22 on the Billboard US Hot Country Songs chart. The Taste of Country website called the song “an infectious, melodic jam.”

Vocalists Lucas and Brust released their first LoCash single in the spring of 2010. Even though they’ve been on the music scene together for seven years and scored a #1 country hit for “I Know Somebody” in February of 2016, they were nominated in the category of best New Duo or Group of 2017 by the Academy of Country Music.

Please check out the video of LoCash’s live performance of “Ring on Every Finger.” The video was shot at Country Rebel headquarters in Ashland City, TN, in 2017. The lyrics are below if you’d like to sing along…

“Ring on Every Finger”
Written by Jesse Frasure, Josh Kear and Thomas Rhett. Performed by LoCash.

I’ve got a pounding in my chest baby
Feels like I’m seventeen again
Got something burning a hole in my pocket lately
Done asked your daddy, done told your friends

I ain’t gettin’ down on one knee
Girl, I’m gettin’ on two
Might be over the top
But I tell you what I’m gonna do

I’ll put on a ring on every finger
To show that I’m legit
Gonna try my last name on ya girl
Just to see if it fits
If I could, baby, I would marry you a million times,
Put a ring on every finger
To show the whole world that you are mine
Show the whole world that you’re mine

Well, señorita, can’t nothing be sweeter
Than you in that white wedding dress.

Leaving’ that church limousine, yeah
Girl, why you cryin’, it ain’t rocket science
All you gotta do is say, “Yes”
Spend the rest of your life with me

Don’t you know I ain’t gettin’ down on one knee
Until I’m gettin’ down on two
It might be over the top
But I tell you what I’m gonna do

I’ll put on a ring on every finger
To show that I’m legit
Gonna try my last name on ya, girl
Just to see if it fits
If I could baby I would marry you a million times,
Put a ring on every finger
To show the whole world that you are mine
Show the whole world that you’re mine

Come on, let’s spend this life together
Dropping f bombs like forever
With the whole world as a witness
Gonna flip that Miss to Mrs.
Gonna spend this life together
Dropping f bombs like forever
With the whole world as a witness
I’ll flip that Miss to a Mrs.

I’ll put on a ring on every finger
To show that I’m legit
Gonna try my last name on
Just to see if it fits
If I could baby I would marry you a million times,
Put a ring on every finger
To show the whole world…

I’ll put a ring on every finger
Just to show that I’m legit
Go ahead and try my last name on girl
Just to see if it fits
If I could baby I would marry you a million times,
Put a ring on every finger
To show the whole world that you are mine
Show the whole world that you’re mine
