High Noon (do Not Forsake Me) Lyrics - Billy Walker

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling 

On this our wedding day 

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling 

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 

Supposin' I lose my fair haired beauty 

Look at that big hand move along nearing high noon 

He made a vow while in state prison 

Vowed it would be my life or his 

I'm not afraid at all 

What will I do if you leave me 

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling 

You made that promise as a bride 

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling 

Although you're grieving, don't think of leaving 

Now, that I need you by my side 

Wait along, wait along, wait along, wait along
