High Noon
Do not forsake me, oh, my Darlin',
On this, our Wedding 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 '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's in State Prison:
Vowed it would be my Life for 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 Side.

Wait along,
