Ten years ago on a cold dark night

Someone was killed neath the town hall light

There were few at the scene but they all agreed

That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me

The judge he said Son

What is your alibi

If you were somewhere else

Then you won't have to die

I spoke not a word although it meant my life

For I had been in the arms

Of my best friend's wife

She walks these hills in a long black veil

She visits my grave when the night winds wail

Nobody knows nobody sees

Nobody knows but me

The scaffold was high and eternity was near

She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear

But sometimes at night

When the cold wind moans

In the long black veil

She cries over my bones

She walks these hills in a long black veil

She visits my grave when the night winds wail

Nobody knows nobody sees

Nobody knows but me
