David Allan Coe - Long Black Veil текст песни

Исполнитель: David Allan Coe

альбом: David Allan Coe - 25 Greats


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 somewheres else, then you won't have to die"
I said not a word, though 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 near
She stood in the crowd but she never shed one tear
And sometimes at night when the cold wind moans
In a 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
