George and Tammy sing “Golden Ring”
& I wish I had one to pawn today.

Ever since I lost my job, 
unemployment has been unreliable,
& I worry my body cannot do,
cannot sustain me anymore. 

Like Tammy, I stopped relying on men
like George. Men who drugged their pain away.

You know, even after the divorce,
she was persuaded to duet with cold, hard cash.
