High Noon (Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darlin') Songtext
von The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

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
For 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
S'posin' I lose my fair-haired beauty
Look at that big hand move along
Nearing I know


He made a vow while in state prison
That 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 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
