High Noon (Do Not Forsake Me)

Do not forsake me oh my darlin'

On this our wedding day

Do not forsake me oh my darlin'

Wait; wait alone

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 an' duty

S'posin' I lose my fair-haired beauty

Look at that big hand move along

Nearing high noon

He made a vow while in states prison:

Vowed it would be my life for his an'

I'm not afraid of death but oh what shall 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
