Roy Drusky - Long Black Veil lyrics

Ten years ago on a cold dark night someone was k**ed neath the town hall light Just a few at the scene but they all did agreed That the man who ran looked a lot like me Well The judge said son what is your alibi If you were somewhere else well you won't have to die I spoke not a word though it meant my life so I had 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 Nobody knows love nobody sees nobody knows but me The scaffold was high and eternity near she stands in the crowd and shedes not a tear But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans In a long black veil she cries o'er my bones She walks these hills in a long black Viel she visits my grave when the night winds wail nobody knows love nobody sees nobody knows but me
