Long Black Veil - Rosanne Cash/Jeff Tweedy
Written by：Marijohn Wilkin/Danny Dill
Ten years ago
On a cold dark night
There was someone killed
'Neath the town hall lights
There were few at the scene
But they all did agree
That 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 near
She stood in the crowd
And shed 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
Nobody knows
Nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
