The Long Black Veil - Bill Monroe & The Bluegrass Boys[00:00:00]
Ten years ago on a cold dark night[00:00:10]
Someone was killed 'neath the Town Hall light[00:00:16]
There were few at the scene but they all agreed[00:00:22]
That this lad who ran looked a lot like me[00:00:28]
The judge said "Son what is your alibi [00:00:34]
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die"[00:00:41]
I spoke not a word although it meant my life[00:00:47]
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife[00:00:53]
She walks these hills in a long black veil[00:01:02]
She visits my grave when the night winds wail[00:01:08]
Nobody knows nobody sees[00:01:16]
Nobody knows but me[00:01:23]
The scaffold was high and eternity near[00:01:37]
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear[00:01:43]
But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans[00:01:49]
In a long black veil she cries over my bones[00:01:56]
She walks these hills in a long black veil[00:02:02]
She visits my grave when the night winds wail[00:02:08]
Nobody knows nobody sees[00:02:17]
Nobody knows but me[00:02:23]
