Ten years ago on a cold dark night
A man was killed neath the town hall light
There was a few at the scene and they all did agree
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
But 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
And visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows nobody sees nobody knows but me
[ harmonica ]
Well the scaffold was high and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night when the cold winds blow
In a long black veil Lord she cries over my bones
She walks these hills in a long black veil...
Nobody knows nobody sees nobody knows but me
