I'd argue that Ring of Fire is a metaphor about forbidden love that you know is damning you but the feelings are too powerful to resist.
Rather than a harmless metaphor, I find it an incredibly powerful metaphor about the pain and suffering caused by helplessly loving the "wrong" person.
Plus, there's an opportunity to make STD jokes.
It'd be a more powerful metaphor if he wasn't a massive manwhore and his "love" wasn't any fan with great tits, or his second wife's sister.
Well, yeah. No one said he wasn't flawed.
Yeah, that was the point, you nailed it fam.
