On a long, lonesome journey I'm going Now darling please don't you cry For in shackles and chains they will take me To a prison to stay until I die. (Chorus) And at night through the bars I will 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. Put your arm through the bars once my darling Let me kiss those sweet lips that I love best For in heartaches you're my consolation And in misery my haven of rest.
