Long Black Veil - (cover)

Long Black Veil - (cover)

Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
there was Someone killed, 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene, but they all did agree
That the man who ran, looked a lot like 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, thou it meant my life
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 is high eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night, when the cold wind blows
In a long black veil, she cries ov're my bones

Oooh, this is dang great, Carl! Just so fantastic! I like the way you made a country song ROCK. I'm putting it on my favorites list, although my favorites can't be displayed on my old format any longer. Youtube did away with it.

Btw, if you want to send me a share, always feel free do so. Youtube subscription page is so messed up these days, that I'm frequently late to viewings now. :) Janet
