Music of the Great Westerns

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)

O.K. Corral, O.K. Corral
There the outlaw band make their final stand
O.K. Corral

Oh, my dearest one, must I lay down my gun
Or take the chance of losing you forever
Duty calls, my back's against the wall
Have you no kind word to say before I ride away
Awa-a-a-a-a-a-a-y

Your love, your love, I need your love
Keep the flame, let it burn until I return
From the gunfight at O.K. Corral
If the Lord is my friend, we'll meet at the end
Of the gunfight at O.K. Corral

Gunfight at O.K.Corral
Boot Hill, Boot Hill, so cold, so still
There they lay side by side
The killers that died
In the gunfight at O.K. Corral

O.K. Corral
Gunfight at O.K. Corra-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-l
