Song: Long Black Veil
Singer: Johnny Cash
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
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 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'd been in the arms of
my best friend's wife
Did I hear someone applaud
Now the scaffold is high
and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd
and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night
when the north wind moans
In a long black veil
she cries ov're 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
Can I have a glass of water
huh Alright
Lemme have a
have a drink of water
I'm about to choke up
That's cocaine blues
We got a special surprise for
you fellas
And especially for one fella
In a few minutes
we're going to record a brand
new song that
I just sang last night
for the first time
It was written by someone
here in Folsom prison
Can I have a drink of water
Last time last time I was here
I had a drink of water
And uh I don't know
what the hell it run off
I think it must have run off
Luther's boots or something
Is that water
You promise that's water huh
Is that water bob That's water
Serve everything in tin cups
He caught it didn't he
I have an announcement here
Sandoval Sandoval S-A-N-D-O-V-A-L Sandoval
Eighty eight four one nine
is wanted in reception
