Ring Down the Drain

Slipped through my finger my diamond ring
Down the drain it went so I got out some string
I attaching a bobby pin then coiled it like a box spring
Lowering it down gently but the phone started to ring
I went to answer it and cling clang there went the bobby pin
Down the drain next to my diamond ring pang ping
I lost my ring and bobby pin attached to the string
While running to the phone I sprained my hamstring

What a day I have had all and for nothing, 
Now tears like rain for a lost diamond ring
