The Long Black Veil — текст песни (nazareth)





By: m. wilkens & d. dill





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 said son, what is your alibi

If you were somewhere else, then you wont have to die

I spoke not a word, thou it meant my life

For Id been in the arms of my best friends 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



Oh, the scaffold is high and eternitys near

She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear

But late at night, when the north wind blows

In a long black veil, she cries ovre 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



Oh, the scaffold is high and eternitys near

She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear

But late at night, when the north wind blows

In a long black veil, she cries ovre my bones
