Текст песни Long Black Veil

Ten years ago, on a cool dark night There was someone killed 'neath the town hall light There were few at the scene but they all agreed That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me Well 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 although it meant my life For 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, good Lord, nobody sees Nobody knows but me Well the sky goes 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 all night long She walks these hills in a long black veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, good Lord, nobody sees Nobody knows but me Nobody knows but me Nobody knows but me
