Long Black Veil - Lefty Frizzell[00:00:01]
Ten years ago on a cold dark night[00:00:08]
There was someone killed[00:00:15]
'Neath the town hall light[00:00:19]
There were few at the scene [00:00:23]
But they all agreed[00:00:26]
That the slayer who ran[00:00:30]
Looked a lot like me[00:00:33]
The judge said [00:00:39]
"Son what is your alibi [00:00:42]
If you were somewhere else[00:00:46]
Then you won't have to die"[00:00:50]
I spoke not a word though[00:00:54]
It meant my life[00:00:58]
For I had been in the arms[00:01:01]
Of my best friend's wife[00:01:05]
She walks these hills[00:01:11]
In a long black veil[00:01:15]
She visits my grave[00:01:18]
When the night winds wail[00:01:22]
Nobody knows [00:01:28]
Nobody sees[00:01:33]
Nobody knows but me[00:01:36]
The scaffold is high [00:01:43]
And eternity nears[00:01:47]
She stood in the crowd[00:01:51]
And shed not a tear[00:01:54]
But sometimes at night[00:01:58]
When the cold wind mourns[00:02:02]
In a long black veil[00:02:06]
She cries over my bones[00:02:10]
She walks these hills[00:02:16]
In a long black veil[00:02:20]
She visits my grave[00:02:23]
When the night winds wail[00:02:27]
Nobody knows nobody sees[00:02:33]
Nobody knows but me [00:02:41]
Nobody knows but me [00:02:49]
Nobody knows but me[00:02:56]
