Tex Isley - Prisoner's Song lyrics

Oh, I wish I had someone to love me Someone that would call me their own Oh, I wish I had someone to live with I'm so tired of living alone Oh, meet me tonight in the moonlight Oh, meet me tonight all alone For I have a sad story to tell you To be told by the moonlight alone I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow Leaving my dear darling my own And these cold prison walls all around me And my head on a pillow of stone If I had the wings of an angel Over these prison walls I would fly I would fly to the arms of my darling And there I'd be willing to die Oh, meet me tonight, honey, meet me Oh, meet me tonight all alone For I have a sad story to tell you To be told by the moonlight alone I have a grand Ship on the ocean It's all lined with silver and gold And before my dear darling shall suffer I will have that ship anchored and sold I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow Leaving my dear darling my own And these cold prison walls all around me And my head on a pillow of stone
