Prisoner's Song Lyrics

The Prisoner's Song

Vernon Dalhart

- Top #1 in 26 and 26!

Oh, I wish I had some-one to love me

Some-one to call me their own

Oh, I wish I had some-one to live with

'Cause I'm ti-red of liv-in' a-lone

Oh, please meet me to-night in the moon-light

Please meet me to-night all a-lone

For I have a sad sto-ry to tell you

It's a sto-ry that's nev-er been told

I'll be car-ried to the new jail to-mor-row Vernon Dalhart - Prisoner's Song - http://motolyrics.com/vernon-dalhart/prisoners-song-lyrics.html

Leav-ing my poor dar-ling all a-lone

With the cold pris-on bars all a-round me

And my head on a pil-low of stone

Now I have a grand ship on the o-cean

All mount-ed with sil-ver and gold

And be-fore my poor dar-lin' would suf-fer

Oh! that ship would be an-chored and sold

Now if I had wings like an an-gel

O-ver these pri-son walls I would fly

And I'd fly to the arms of my poor dar-lin'

And there I'd be wil-ling to die
