Lyrics
On a long lonesome journey I'm going Oh darling, please don't you cry Though in shackles and chains they will take me To a prison to stay till I die And at night through the bars, I will gaze at the stars And long for your kisses in vain And the fable I'll use for my pillow My companions will be shackles and chains Let your arms through the bars once more darling Let me kiss those sweet lips I love best In heartache, you're my consolation In sorrow, my haven of rest And at night through the bars, I will gaze at the stars The plans that we made were in vain And the bible I'll use for my pillow While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains I'll be sleeping in shackles and chains
