High Noon (Do Not Forsake Me)

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 'tween 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 'nd
 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)
