Don't Fail Me Now

Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened eyes

Kindle the wood, prepare the fire

And don't fail me now

Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened soul

Kindle the wood and get ready to roll

Just don't fail me now

And don't fail me now

You don't do me right

You don't do me right

Why you do me wrong

When the rope gets tight?

Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened soul

Burn the love, my things and get ready to roll

And don't fail me now

Oh Mary, oh mother of all that is near

Lead me to freedom from my kingdom of fear

And don't fail me now

Just don't fail me now

You don't do me right

You don't do me right

Why you do me wrong

When the rope gets tight?

When rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

When the rope gets tight?

Why you do me wrong

Why you do me wrong

When the rope gets tight?
