The Long Black Veil by wap |
[00:08.27] |
Ten years ago on a cold dark night |
[00:15.39] |
A man was killed 'neath the town hall light |
[00:24.86] |
There were few at the scene but they all agreed |
[00:32.86] |
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me. |
[00:42.77] |
The judge said, Son what is your alibi? |
[00:50.39] |
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die |
[00:58.33] |
Well, I spoke not a word though it meant my life |
[01:05.97] |
For I had been in the arms of my best friends wife. |
[01:15.72] |
She walks these hills in a long black veil |
[01:23.47] |
She visits my grave when the night winds wail |
[01:33.81] |
Nobody knows, nobody sees, |
[01:41.61] |
Nobody knows, but me. |
[01:52.51] |
The scaffold is high an eternity nears |
[02:00.26] |
She stood in the crowd, shed not a tear |
[02:07.81] |
But sometimes at night when the cold winds moan |
[02:15.78] |
She comes to my grave and she cries on my bones. |
[02:25.34] |
She walks these hills in a long black veil |
[02:33.19] |
She visits my grave when the night winds wail |
[02:43.34] |
Nobody knows, nobody sees, |
[02:51.53] |
Nobody knows, but me... |
