Bruce:]
Well ten years ago, on a cold dark night
There was someone killed 'neath the townhall light
There were few at the scene, yeah but they all agreed
That the man who ran looked a lot like me

[Bruce:]
Well she walks these hills in a long black veil
Visits my grave where the night winds wail -- Say it!
Nobody knows, darling, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

[Thomson:]
The judge said, "son what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else, then you don't have to die"
I said not a word, though it crushed my life
'Cause I was in the arms of my best friend's wife

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

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

[Bruce:]
Well the gallows were close and eternity near
She stood in the crowd and she shed not a tear
[Bruce and Thomson:]
Sometimes at night when the cold winds blow
In a long black veil she cries over my bones

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

[all:]
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

[all:]
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

[all:]
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
