Testo Long Black Veil - Lee Ann Womack
Testo della canzone Long Black Veil (Lee Ann Womack), tratta dall'album The Lonely, the Lonesome & the Gone
Ten years ago, on a cold, dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall light
Few were at the scene, but they all did agreed
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
The judge said, "Son what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else, you won't have to die"
I spoke not a word, although 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 nears
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But 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
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
