Do not for-sake me, oh, my dar-lin',
On this our wed- d- ing day.
Do not for-sake me, oh, my dar-lin', wait
wait a long
I do not know what fate a- waits me,
I on-ly know I must be brave
And I must face a man who hates me,
Or lie a co-ward, a cra-ven co-ward,
Or lie a co-ward in my grave.
Oh, to be torn 'tweenst love and du- ty,
S'posin' I lose my fair-haired beau-ty!
Look at that big hand move a -long,
Nea- ring High Noon.
He made a vow while in state's pri- son,
Vowed it would be my life or hi -s'n.
I'm not a- fraid of death, but, oh,
What would I do if you leave me?
Do not for-sake me, oh, my dar-lin',
You made that pro-mise as a bride.
Do not for-sake me, oh, my dar-lin',
Al-though you're grie-vin',
Don't think of lea-vin',
Now that I need you by my side.
Wait a-long (wait along) wait a-long.
Wait a-long, wait a-long.
