Tekst
Well, ten years ago on a cold dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town's hall light
There were few at the scene but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
The judge said to me, "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die"
Well, 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
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Oh, nobody knows and nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
The scaffold was high and eternity near
She stood in the crowd but she shed not a tear
And sometimes at night when the cold wind blows
She stands o'er my grave and weeps for my bones
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Oh, nobody knows and nobody sees
Nobody knows but me
Oh, nobody knows but me
Oh, nobody knows but me
