Long Black Veil (2011 - Remaster)
Ten years ago on a cold dark night There was someone killed neath the town hall light There were few at the scene but they all agreed The slayer who ran looked a lot like me.
The judge said, 'Son, what is your alibi? If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die' I spoke not a word though it meant my life For, I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife.
She walks these hills in a long black veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, nobody sees Nobody knows but me. Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
The scaffold stood high, eternity neared She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear But sometimes at night when the cold winds moan In a long black veil she cries on my bones.
She walks these hills in a long black veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, nobody sees Nobody knows but me.
Nobody knows but me
