The Long Black Veil (Live) 歌詞
Long Black Veil - Johnny Cash (約翰尼·卡什)
Written by:Marijohn Wilkin/Danny Dill
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
Someone was 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
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
Oh the scaffold is high and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and she'd not a tear
But late at night when the north wind blows
In a long black veil she cries ov're 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
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 thou it meant my life
For I'd 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 nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
Nobody knows nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
