Johnny Cash - Long Black Veil

Ten years ago on a cold dark night there was

Someone killed 'neath the town hall lights

There were few at the scene, but they all agreed

That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me

Now she walks these hills, in a long black veil

She visits my grave, when the cold winds wail

Nobody knows, nobody sees

Nobody knows, but me

The scaffold is high, and eternity's near

She stood in the crowd, and shed not a tear

But some times at night, when the cold wind moans

In a long black veil, she cries over my bones

Now 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 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

I'd been in the arms of my best friends wife

Now 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, nobody sees

Nobody knows, but me
