paroles de chanson Long Black Veil (Remastered, Live) - Joan Baez

Ten years ago, on a cold, dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall light
The people who saw, 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 spoke not a word, though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
She walks these hills in a long, black veil
Visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
The scaffold is high, eternity near
She stands in the crowd, she sheds not a tear
But sometimes at night, when the cold winds moan
In the long, black veil she cries o'er my bones
She walks these hills in a long, black veil
Visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
