The Long Black Veil Lyrics
The Long Black Veil (长长的黑面纱) - Johnny Lee
It was ten years ago on a cold dark night
There was someone 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
And the judge said
Son what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die
But I spoke not a word although it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of judge'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
The scaffold was high and eternity's near
She stands in the crowd and she shed not a tear
But sometime late at night when the cold cold wind blows
And 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
There ain't nobody knows nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
