(Ned Washington - Dimitri Tiomkin)      Do not forsake me, oh my darling, on this our wedding day   Do not forsake me, oh my darling, 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, supposin' I lose my fairhaired beauty   Look at that big hand move along, nearing high noon   He made a vow while in state prison, vowed it would be my life or his'n   I'm not afraid at all, of what will I do if you leave me.      Do not forsake me, oh my darling, you made that promise as a bride   Do not forsake me, oh my darling, although you're grieving don't think of leaving   Now that I need you by my side   Wait along, wait alongm wait along, wait along...
