《The Long Black Veil》歌词

[00:00:08] Ten years ago on a cold dark night

[00:00:16] A man was killed neath the town hall light

[00:00:25] There were few at the scene but they all agreed

[00:00:33] That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me.

[00:00:43] The judge said, Son what is your alibi?

[00:00:50] If you were somewhere else then you wont have to die

[00:00:58] Well, I spoke not a word though it meant my life

[00:01:06] For I had been in the arms of my best friends wife.

[00:01:15] She walks these hills in a long black veil

[00:01:23] She visits my grave when the night winds wail

[00:01:33] Nobody knows, nobody sees,

[00:01:42] Nobody knows, but me.

[00:01:52] The scaffold is high an eternity nears

[00:02:00] She stood in the crowd, shed not a tear

[00:02:08] But sometimes at night when the cold winds moan

[00:02:15] She comes to my grave and she cries on my bones.

[00:02:25] She walks these hills in a long black veil

[00:02:33] She visits my grave when the night winds wail

[00:02:43] Nobody knows, nobody sees,

[00:02:51] Nobody knows, but me...
