Bob Dylan - Long Black Veil lyrics

Your rating:

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 man who ran looked a lot like me 

She walks these hills in a long black veil 
She visits my grave while the night winds wail 
Nobody knows, nobody sees 
Nobody knows but me 

The judge said Son, what's your alibi 
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die 
I spoke not a word thought it meant my life 
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife 

(Refrain) 

The scaffold was high and eternity near 
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear 
But sometime at night when the cold winds moan 
In a long black veil she cries over my bones
