Lyrics:

HIGH NOON.

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 THE 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
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 OR HIS’N
I’M NOT AFRAID OF DEATH BUT OH
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
