Bill Monroe - The Long Black Veil Lyrics

Rate:



1. 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.

cho: 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.

2. The judge said: Son, what is your alibi.

cho....

The scaffold was high and eternity near.
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear.
But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans.
In a long black veil she cries o'er my bones.

cho....
