Long Black Veil (Remastered 2022)

歌詞

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 agree That 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. The scaffold's high and eternity near She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear But sometimes at night when the cold wind blows In a long black veil she cries o'er 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. Nobody knows but me...
