Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin'
On this our wedding day
Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin'
Wait, wait along.
I do not know what fate awaits me
I only know I must be brave
For I must face a man who hates me
Or lie a coward, a craven coward
Or lie a coward in my grave.
Oh, to be torn twixt love and duty
Supposin' I lose my fairhaired beauty
Look at that big hand move along
Nearin' high noon.
He made a vow while in state's prison
Vowed it would be my life or his'n
I'm not afraid of death at all, of what will I do
If you leave me do not forsake me oh my darlin'.
You made that promise as a bride.
Do not forsake me oh my darlin'
Although you're grievin', don't think of leavin'
Now that I need you by my side.
Wait along, wait along, wait along, wait along...
(Ned Washington - Dimitri Tiomkin) Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin' On this our wedding day Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin' Wait, wait along. I do not know what fate awaits me I only know I must be brave For I must face a man who hates me Or lie a coward, a craven coward Or lie a coward in my grave. Oh, to be torn twixt love and duty Supposin' I lose my fairhaired beauty Look at that big hand move along Nearin' high noon. He made a vow while in state's prison Vowed it would be my life or his'n I'm not afraid of death at all, of what will I do If you leave me do not forsake me oh my darlin'. You made that promise as a bride. Do not forsake me oh my darlin' Although you're grievin', don't think of leavin' Now that I need you by my side. Wait along, wait along, wait along, wait along...
