tommy cash - long black veil lyrics
well ten years ago on a cold dark night someone was killed neath the town’s 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 you’re somewhere else then you won’t have to die
well i spoke not a word though it meant my life
for 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
oh n-body knows and n-body sees n-body knows but me
[ ac.guitar ]
the scaffold is high and eternity near she stood in the crowd but she she’d not a tear
and sometimes at night when the cold wind moans
she stands o’er my grave and weeps for my bones
she walks these hills…
oh n-body knows but me oh n-body knows but me
