Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh I wish I had someone to love me Someone to call me their own Oh I wish I had someone to live with 'Cause I'm tired of living alone [Verse 2] Oh please meet me tonight in the moonlight Won't you meet me tonight all alone For I have a sad story to tell you It's a story that's never been told [Verse 3] I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow Leaving my poor darling all alone With the cold prison bars all around me And my head on a pillow of stone [Verse 4] Now I have a grand shift on the ocean All mounted with silver and gold And before my poor darling should suffer Oh that ship would be anchored and sold [Verse 5] Now if I had wings like an angel Over these prison walls I would fly I would fly to the arms of my poor darling And there I'd be willing to die
