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

In prison to stay till I die

And at night through the bars

I 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 arms thru these bars once, my darlin'

Let me kiss those sweet lips that 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

A piece of stone I will use as my pillow

While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
