Ten years ago on a cold dark night Someone was killed 'neath the town hall lights The people who saw,they all agreed The slayer who ran looked a lot like me 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, though it meant my life For I'd been in the arms of my best friends wife 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 The scaffold is high, and eternity's near She stands in the crowd, and sheds not a tear But some times at night, when the cold wind moans In a long black veil, she cries over my bones 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
