Letra de Long Black Veil

Ten years ago on a cold dark night
A man killed 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene and they all did agree
That the man 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, though it meant my life
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 where the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
Well, 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 winds moan
In a long black veil, Lord, she cries all o'er my bones
She walks these hills in a long black veil
And visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
