Shackles And Chains lyrics

On a long lonesome journey I'm going Throw your arms 'round my neck and don't cry Though in shackles and chains they will take me To a prison to stay til I die And at night through the bars I will gaze at the stars And long for your sweet kiss in vain A piece of stone I will use for my pillow While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains Put your arms through these bars once my darling Let me kiss those sweet lips I love best In heartache you're my consolation And 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 for my pillow While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
