Wiki:
Social Distortion's cover is a fantastic take on the Johnny Cash classic. One definition of a "good cover" is one that manages to be faithful to the original while being to stay true to the covering artist's style; this "Ring of Fire" manages this with flying colors.
Lyrics:
Love is a burning thing And it makes a fiery ring Bound by one desire I fell into a, a ring of fire I fell into a burnin' ring of fire I went down down down And the flames went higher And it burn burn burns That ring of fire That ring of fire The taste of love is sweet When hearts like ours meet I fell for ya, like a child Oh, let the fire burn wild I fell into a burnin' ring of fire I went down down down And the flames went higher And it burns burn burns That ring of fire That ring of fire Let it burn! I fell into a burnin' ring of fire I went down down down And the flames went higher And it burns burn burns That ring of fire That ring of fire The taste of love is sweet When hearts like ours meet I fell for ya, like a child Oh, let the fire burn wild I fell into a burnin' ring of fire I went down down down And the flames went higher And it burns burn burns That ring of fire That ring of fire One more time! I fell into a burnin' ring of fire I went down down down And the flames went higher And it burns burn burns That ring of fire That ring of fire That ring of fire That ring of fire
