country gentlemen – the long black veil lyrics
ten years ago, on a cold dark night
someone 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
now she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n-body knows, n-body sees
n-body knows but me
the scaffold is high and eternity near
she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
but sometimes at night, when a 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
n-body knows, n-body sees
n-body 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 friend’s wife
she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n-body knows, n-body sees
n-body knows but me
n-body knows, n-body sees
n-body knows but me
