Shackles & Chains

Well, on a long lonesome journey I'm goin'
Come, my darlin', and please don't you cry
For, in shackles and chains they will take me
To a prison to stay till I die

And at night, through the bars, I'll gaze at the stars
And I'll dream of your kisses in vain
A piece of stone I will use for my pillow
While I'm sleepin' in shackles and chains

Put your arms through these bars once, my darlin'
Long to kiss those sweet lips I love best
In heartaches, you're my consolation
And, in teardrops, my haven of rest

And at night, through the bars, I'll gaze at the stars
And I'll long for your kisses in vain
A piece of stone I will usе for my pillow
My companions will be shackles and chains

And at night, through the bars, I'll gazе at the stars
And I'll dream of your kisses in vain
A piece of stone I will use for my pillow
My companions will be shackles and chains
