Letra de Long Black Veil
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night Someone was killed, 'neath the town hall lights There were few at the scene, but they all agreed That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me Chorus She walks these hills in a long black veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, nobody sees Nobody knows but me Oh, the scaffold is high and eternity's near She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear But sometimes at night, when the cold wind moans In a long black veil, she cries ov're my bones (I hear somebody applauding) Chorus 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, thou it meant my life For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife Chorus
