The Long Black Veil

Текст песни JOHNNY CASH - The Long Black Veil <br/> Ten years ago on a cold dark night,<br />someone was killed &#039;neath the town hall lights.<br />There were few at the scene, but they all agreed,<br />that the slayer who ran looked a lot like me.<br /><br />Chorus ~ She walks these hills, in a long black veil.<br />She visits my grave, when the night winds vail.<br />( )<br />Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows, but me <br /><br />The Judge said son, what is your alibi,<br />if you were somewhere else, then you won&#039;t have to die.<br />I spoke not a word, though it ment my life,<br />for i&#039;d been in the arms of my best friends wife.<br /><br />Chorus*<br /><br />Now the schaffold is high, and eternity&#039;s near.<br />She stood in the crowd, and shed not a tear.<br />But some times at night, when the cold wind moans<br />In a long black veil, she cries over my bones<br /><br />Chorus ~ She walks these hills, in a long black veil.<br />When the cold winds blow, and the night winds wail.<br />No body knows, no body sees.<br />No body knows, but me.<br />
