Hank Snow sings only 2 verses, and they are a bit different:


PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND ME
As sung by Hank Snow on "The Classic Decades: Hank Snow Vol. 2" (2012)

In the cold gray walls of a prison, wracked with pain and fever she lay,
A woman who called for her loved one, and over and over she said:
"Put your arms around me; hold me close before we part.
Let the warm sweet tears from your blue eyes ease the pain in my cold, cold heart."

They searched through her few possessions for the name she was trying to call,
But there wasn't a name or a picture; no letter, nothing at all.
"Put your arms around me; lay your cheek against my own,
While I fall asleep, my darlin', to awake in the great unknown."
