Song Lyrics
The judge said, there was someone killed neath the town hall light, there was someone killed neath the town hall light
The scaffold is high and eternity nears, and nobody sees, i had been in the arms of my best friend s wife
Nobody knows, there were few at the scene but they all did agree Cash, and nobody sees
In a long black veil she cries all o er my bones, the scaffold is high and eternity nears Black, nobody knows
I had been in the arms of my best friend s wife, she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
she visits my grave where the night winds wail
Nobody knows but me, but sometimes at night where the cold winds moan
There were few at the scene but they all did agree, there were few at the scene but they all did agree Cash, she visits my grave where the night winds wail
Nobody knows, son what is your alibi
I had been in the arms of my best friend s wife, the judge said, there was someone killed neath the town hall light
There was someone killed neath the town hall light, there were few at the scene but they all did agree
in a long black veil she cries all o er my bones
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear, if you were somewhere else, she walks these hills in a long black veil
If you were somewhere else, nobody knows
Nobody knows, in a long black veil she cries all o er my bones, i had been in the arms of my best friend s wife
nobody knows
Son what is your alibi, though it meant my life
though it meant my life
there was someone killed neath the town hall light
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear, she walks these hills in a long black veil, nobody knows
But sometimes at night where the cold winds moan, the scaffold is high and eternity nears Cash, she visits my grave where the night winds wail
She walks these hills in a long black veil, she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
i had been in the arms of my best friend s wife
the judge said
there was someone killed neath the town hall light
Then you won t have to die., nobody knows
Nobody knows, there were few at the scene but they all did agree
The judge said, nobody knows
I had been in the arms of my best friend s wife, she visits my grave where the night winds wail, nobody knows
I spoke not a word, but sometimes at night where the cold winds moan
though it meant my life
and nobody sees
She walks these hills in a long black veil, and nobody sees
Nobody knows, ten years ago on a cold dark night, though it meant my life
I spoke not a word, i spoke not a word
Nobody knows but me, she walks these hills in a long black veil
Son what is your alibi, son what is your alibi Veil, i spoke not a word
I had been in the arms of my best friend s wife, i had been in the arms of my best friend s wife
nobody knows but me
The judge said, nobody knows but me Black, in a long black veil she cries all o er my bones
she walks these hills in a long black veil
Nobody knows but me, she walks these hills in a long black veil
ten years ago on a cold dark night
There was someone killed neath the town hall light, son what is your alibi, and nobody sees
ten years ago on a cold dark night
Nobody knows, and nobody sees
the judge said
The judge said, she walks these hills in a long black veil
Ten years ago on a cold dark night, she visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, that the man who ran looked a lot like me
Nobody knows but me, then you won t have to die., she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
