Shackles And Chaines Songtext

On a long lonesome Journey I'm goingOh darling, and please don't you cry Though in shackles and chains they will take meIn prison to stay till I die And at night through the barsI gaze at the stars And I long for your kisses in vainA piece of stone I will use for my pillow While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains Put your arms thru theseb ars once, my darlin' Let me kiss those sweet lips that I love bestIn heartache you're my consolation In sorrow my haven of restAnd at night through the barsI will gaze at the stars The plans that we made were in vainA piece of stone I will use as my pillow While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
