Prisoner's Song Lyrics - Hank Snow

Oh I wish I had someone to love me 

Yes someone to call me their own 

Oh I wish I had someone to sleep with 

Cause I'm tired of sleeping all alone 

Please meet me tonight in the moonlight 

Please meet me tonight all alone 

For I had a sad story to tell you 

It's a story that's never been told 

I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow 

Leaving my poor ol' darling all 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 with gold 

And before my poor darling would suffer 

That ship would be anchored and sold
