    Long Black Veil Lyrics:
    Ten years ago on a cold dark night
    Someone was killed 'neath the town 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, "Son, what is your alibi?
    If you were somewhere else, you won't have to die"
    I spoke not a word, though it meant my life
    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
    Nobody knows, nobody sees
    Nobody knows but me
    Now the scaffold seemed high, and eternity was near
    She stood in the crowd, but she shed not a tear
    But late at night when the warm wind blows
    She cries over my grave and she moans o'er 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

    Maybe just me idk, but tickles me when William Lee when he describing the song at the intro says "all the people that was at the killing, they said the guy looked alot like me, and he couldn't tell the judge where he as that night , cause he was in the arms of his best friends wife" then the little grin tickles me. And the outro where he points to himself after singing "nobody knows but me" then grabs his hat and grins, that just tickles me again. Anyways obviously a great song and great video , but William Lee and the Goldens bring it to the top, and such great players, love it!

    William Lee always does a great job on the songs he choses, here with the Goldens and his wife Simone playing the woman in the black veil.
