Shackles and Chains

Shackles and Chains (枷锁和束缚) - Marty Robbins (马丁·罗宾逊)

On a long lonesome journey I'm going

Throw your arms around my neck

And don't cry

Though in shackles and chains

They will take me

To a prison to stay till I die

And at night through the bars

I will gaze at the stars

And long for your sweet kiss in vain

A piece of stone I will use for my pillow

While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains

Put your arms through these bars

Once my darling

Let me kiss those sweet lips I love best

In heartache you're my consolation

And in sorrow my haven of rest

And at night through the bars

I will gaze at the stars

The plans that we made were in vain

A piece of stone I will use for my pillow

While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
