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 agree 
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me 

The judge said:s"Son what is your alibi 
If you were somewhere else then you won´t have to die" 
I spoke 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´s high and eternity near 
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 but me 
Nobody knows but me 
Nobody knows but me
