HIGH NOON (DO NOT FORSAKE ME) by HANK LOCKLIN 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 spposin' I lose my fairhaired beauty Look at that big hand move along nearing high noon He made a vow while in state's prison vowed it would be my life or his'n I'm not afraid at all of 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 [ www.dailyrics.com ] HIGHNOON(DONOTFORSAKEME) by HANKLOCKLIN
