Johnny Cash’s soon-to-be-second-wife June Carter wrote “Ring of Fire” in 1963 with Merle Kilgore to express the experience of falling in love with the married Man in Black.

[Verse 1]
Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire

The ring of fire
The ring of fire
The ring of fire
