The Prisoner’s Song Songtext
von Bill Monroe

Oh, meet me tonight, lover meet me
Meet me out in the moonlight alone
For I have a sad story to tell you
Must be told in the moonlight alone

How I have a ship on the ocean
All mounted with silver and gold
And before my little darling would suffer
That ship would be anchored and sold


Oh, meet me tonight, oh, lover meet me
Meet me out in the moonlight alone
For I have a sad story to tell you
Must be told in the moonlight alone

How I wish I had someone to love me
Someone to call me their own
How I wish I had someone to live with
I′m tired of living alone

Oh, meet me tonight, lover meet me
Meet me out in the moonlight alone
For I have a sad story to tell you
Must be told in the moonlight alone
