Julie,
they've taken me to prison
I pulled a gun and robbed the jewelry store
The only thing I took was that big diamond
You know the one you said you wished was yours
The diamond in the window called for money
The price was just too much for me to pay
But the price I'm paying now is so much bigger
Oh, Julie,
don't I have the right to say
Don't get married
Julie, wait for me
Don't get married
Cause someday I'll be free
Julie,
when I serve the time they gave me I'll
walk out through the gates and I'll be free
And I hope you didn't only want the diamond
Cause I pray that you also wanted me
Don't get married Julie,
wait for me
Don't get married
Cause someday I'll be free
