[Verse 1]
On a long lonesome journey I'm going
Oh darling, and please don't you cry
Though in shackles and chains they will take me
To a prison to stay until I die
[Chorus]
And at night through the bars, I'd gaze at the stars
And I long for your kisses in vain
A piece of stone I will use for my pillow
While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
[Verse 2]
Put your arms through the bars once, my darlin'
Let me kiss those sweet lips that I love best
For in heartache you're my consolation
And in misery my haven of rest
[Chorus]
And at night through the bars, I'd gaze at the stars
And I long for your kisses made in vain
A piece of stone I will use as my pillow
While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
On a long lonesome journey I'm going
Oh darling, and please don't you cry
Though in shackles and chains they will take me
To a prison to stay until I die
[Chorus]
And at night through the bars, I'd gaze at the stars
And I long for your kisses in vain
A piece of stone I will use for my pillow
While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
[Verse 2]
Put your arms through the bars once, my darlin'
Let me kiss those sweet lips that I love best
For in heartache you're my consolation
And in misery my haven of rest
[Chorus]
And at night through the bars, I'd gaze at the stars
And I long for your kisses made in vain
A piece of stone I will use as my pillow
While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
