Do not forsake me, oh my darlin'
On this, our weddin' 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
And 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
S'posin', I lose my fair haired beauty
Look at that big hand move along
Nearin', high noon
He made a vow while in state prison
Vowed it would be my life or his'n
I'm not afraid of death but, oh
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, wait along
(Wait along, wait along, wait along, wait along)
