(june carter, merle kilgore) Love is a burning thing And it makes a fiery ring Bound by a wild desire I fell into a ring of fire Chorus: I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down and the flames climbed higher And it burned, burned, burned the ring of fire The ring of fire
The taste of love is sweet When hearts like ours meet I fell for you like a child Ooh, but the fire went wild Chorus: I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down and the flames climbed higher And it burned, burned, burned the ring of fire The ring of fire Repeat chorus
