Not totally an "I'm a song about your favorite diamond ring," but the people can identify it. Reba Mcentire's "Ring on Her Finger, Time on Her Hands" is a song about how a woman can still be unhappy despite having the perfect wedding band on her hands. She implies that a wedding ring and vows are just simple, meaningless things in a marriage if the relationship isn't fed well. Just like what she's saying in the song, "it's just a ring on your finger when you got time on your hands."
