joan baez - long black veil (1964) lyrics
[verse 1]
ten years ago on a cold dark night
someone was k!lled ‘neath the town hall light
the people who saw they all agreed
the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
[verse 2]
the judge said, “son, what is your alibi?
if you were somewheres else then you won’t have to die”
i spoke not a word, though it meant my life
for i’d been in the arms of my best friend’s wife
[chorus]
she walks these hills in a long black veil
visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but mе
[verse 3]
the scaffold is high, eternity nеar
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
[chorus]
she walks these hills in a long black veil
visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but me
