Oh I wish I had someone to love me yes someone to call me their own
Oh I wish I had someone to live with cause I'm tired of living alone
Oh please meet me tonight in the moonlight oh please meet me tonight all alone
For I have a sad story to tell you it's a story that's never been told
steel
I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow leaving my poor darling alone
With the cold prison bars all around me and my head on a pillow of stone
Now I have a grand ship on the ocean all mounted with silver and gold
And before my poor darling would suffer oh that ship would be anch*red and sold
Now if I had the wings like an angel over these prison walls I would fly
And I'd fly to the arms of my darling and there I'd be willing to die
