Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
A man was killed 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene, but they all did agree
That the man who ran looked a lot like me

The judge said son, what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life
I'd 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 wind wails
And nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

The scaffold is high and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night, when the cold winds blow
In a long black veil, lord she cries over my bones

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