Don't Get Married Lyrics - Merle Haggard

Julie they've taken me to prison I pulled the gun and robbed the jewelry store 

The only thing I took was that big diamond 

You know the one you said you wish was yours 

The diamond in the window called for money the price was just too much for me to pay 

But the price I'm paying now is so much bigger oh Julie don't I have the right to say 

Don't get married Julie wait for me don't get married cause someday I'll be free 

Julie when I serve the time they gave me 

I'll walk out through the gates and I'll be free 

I hope you didn't only want the diamond cause I pray that you also wanted me 

Don't get married Julie wait for me don't get married cause someday I'll be free
