allen frizzell - the long black veil lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
ten years ago on a cold dark night
someone was k!lled ‘neath the town hall light
few were at the scene but they all did agree
the slayer who ran looked a lot like me

[verse 2]
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

[chorus]
she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but me

[verse 3]
the scaffold was high and eternity near
she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
but sometimes at night when the cold wind moans
in a long black veil she cries o’er my bones

[chorus]
she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but me
[outro]
n0body knows but me
n0body knows but me
n0body knows but me
