don williams – the long black veil lyrics
writers danny dill, marijohn wilkin
ten years ago on a cold dark night
a man was killed ‘neath the town hall light
there were few at the scene but they all agreed
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
well i spoke not a word though it meant my life
for i had been in the arms of my best friends wife
she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n-body knows n-body seems n-body knows but me
the scaffold is high an eternity nears
she stood in the crowd she’d not a tear
but sometimes at night when the cold winds moan
she comes to my grave and she cries on my bones
she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n-body knows n-body seems n-body knows but me
