The Prisoner's Song Lyrics

THE PRISONER'S SONG
(Guy Massey)
« © '24 Shapiro-Bernstein Co »

Oh I wish I had someone to love me, Yes someone to call me their own
Oh I wish I had someone to live with, 'Cause I'm tired of living all alone
Please meet me tonight in the moonlight
Please meet me tonight all alone
For I hace a sad story to tell you
It's a story that's never been told
(I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrowHank Snow - The Prisoner's Song - http://motolyrics.com/hank-snow/the-prisoners-song-lyrics.html
Leaving my poor ol' darling alone)
With the cold prison bars all around me
And my head on a pillow of stone
Now I have a grand ship out on the ocean
All mounted with silver and gold
And before my poor darling would suffer
That ship would be anchored and sold
Now if I had the wings of an angel
Over these prison walls I would fly
And I'd fly to the arms of my poor darling
And there I'd be willing to die
