long black veil - joan baez lyrics

Loading...

ten years ago on a cold dark night,
someone was killed ã? â? ã? â? neath the town hall light
the people who saw they all agreed
that the slayer who ran looked a lot like me.

the judge said, ã? â? ã? â? son, what is your alibi?
if you were somewheres else,
then you won’t have to dieã? â? ã? â?.
i spoke not a word, though 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,
visits my grave when the night winds wail,
n-body knows, n-body sees,
n-body knows, but me.

the scaffold is high, eternity near,
she stands in the crowd, she sheds not a tear,
but sometimes at night, when the cold winds moan,
in a long black veil she cries o’er my bones.

she walks these hills in a long black veil,
visits my grave when the night winds wail,
n-body knows, n-body sees,
n-body knows, but me.
