Lyrics

Ten years ago on a cold dark night Someone was killed 'neath the town hall lights There were few at the scene, but they all agreed That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me Chorus ~ She walks these hills, in a long black veil She visits my grave, when the night winds vail Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows, but me The Judge said son, what is your alibi If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die I spoke not a word, though it ment my life For i'd been in the arms of my best friends wife Chorus Now the schaffold is high, and eternity's near She stood in the crowd, and shed not a tear But some times at night, when the cold wind moans In a long black veil, she cries over my bones Chorus ~ She walks these hills, in a long black veil When the cold winds blow, and the night winds wail No body knows, no body sees No body knows, but me
