High Noon (Do Not Forsake Me) Lyrics

Do not forsake me, oh my darlin'
On this, our weddin' day
Do not forsake me, oh my darlin'
Wait, wait alongI 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 graveOh, to be torn 'tweenst love and duty
Supposin' I lose my fair-haired beauty
Look at that big hand move along
Nearin' high noonHe made a vow while in state prison
Vowed it would be my life or his
An' 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 sideWait along, wait along

(Wait along)
Wait along, wait along
(Wait along, wait along)
(Wait along, wait along, wait along)
