Lyrics:
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

It's so funny, that on the live version someone cheered when he said he was in the arms of his best friend's wife

[@el_chief_dannyboy]

It was probably at Folsom prison or San Quentin

God I wish I could’ve seen this man play.

[@toreb4328]

I saw him nine times. There was never a live-performer near him, og I've seen several hundreds as a reporter.

[@zxrr3448]

me too :(

[@l.salisbury1253]

I caught him in '75 (or '76?) on the "Look At Them Beans" tour- GREAT show!

[@elizabethmerriman531]

I so wish I could have been present in his presence at one of his performances. The woman in the background singing gives me chill bumps when she extends the word, "veil" to the last moment.! Awesome song!

[@Joe_Okey]

@@elizabethmerriman531 The women who were singing backup vocals were the Carter Family and the woman singing that note was his sister-in-law Anita Carter, and I fully agree with you because her voice always gives me goosebumps as well.

[@gilesfamily2653]

The female backing vocals sound haunting and is one of the things I love about this version

[@thebaconblaster2511]

Thank you Johnny Cash for posting from heaven

[@elviramarronhervas1159]

Es divina la voz de Johnny Cash. Me encanta🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘😘

[@StrangeScaryNewEngland]

He does tend to do that occasionally.

[@user-zi8ux6fy2n]

Johnny's version is by far the Best I've heard... Uh sorry Lefty Frizzell...may you BOTH RIP boys 🕊️✌️

[@terrywhitfield2702]

A Legend if ever there was one. R.I.P. Johnny Cash.

[@michaeld.4289]

Best man ever........... i love his bass-barrington voice

[@smokebreakwithelenamanson3070]

I love Johnny, been Singing along to him since I was two years old

[@GS-to9oe]

Only Johnny could pull this off…the music and lyrics have entirely different tones/themes, but it works so well

[@14gears55]

It’s a great song, but I still prefer the original by Lefty

[@davkem1154]

Insane how this is the “Official Audio” but I’ve only ever heard two other variants of this by him! A third is amazing!!

[@fartkerson]

Have you listened to the original recording by Lefty Frizzel? It was chosen for preservation in The Library of Congress. A true American classic.

[@elizabethmerriman531]

Correction...the woman in the background singing the word Wail to the last moment gives me chill bumps

[@elizabethmerriman531]

Listen to Johnny Cash singing, "Were you There".... with the Carter family harmonizing in the background. It will take your breath away.

[@cindysanchez6347]

That long note that the high soprano holds over a few bars always raises the hairs on the back of my neck!

[@Joe_Okey]

Anita Carter, his sister-in-law. The Carter Family were doing the background vocals.

[@el_chief_dannyboy]

He wasn’t married to June yet, they were just touring friends until 1968; this album came out around 1965/1966

[@elizabethmerriman531]

Returning again to make a comment about Johnny Cash. The songs from this man has moved my soul since I was a child. Still moving my soul as an adult.

[@bryanmendoza7630]

Nice to hear this song again ❤️

[@cornhusker9067]

My favorite Cash song, and he’s the goat in country music IMO. Just listen to the lyrics and you believe every word

[@fartkerson]

Well, considering this was originally recorded by Lefty Frizzel and Lefty's is the version preserved in The Library of Congress, I'd say Lefty is the GOAT.

[@wendyraymond1751]

Beautiful ..quite the tale. ..what a voice thanku so much love and god bless x

[@leahharris5]

❤. I Love. Johnny Cash ❤

[@terrywhitfield2702]

God Bless You Johnny Cash.

[@elviramarronhervas1159]

Es preciosa la voz de Johnny Cash. 🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘

[@l.salisbury1253]

Play this back-to-back with Johnny Horton's "springtime in Alaska"- both have eerie female back-up vocals (both by the Carter family?)... and both are sung from the first-person FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE!!

[@barbarathibodeau221]

Yes love this song 💘😺😍😊 I am Jonny cash ☺️☺️❤️❤️😘❤️ thanks 💕😍.you so much its very .great barbara

[@amyfuentes6223]

My favorite 😻

[@servette7]

Magnifique la Version à Johnny , fantastique , il nous manque

[@finalflowerchild]

When I was a little girl, in daylight, in my own house, this song just weirded me out and gave me the creeps! I believe the soprano in the background is Anita Carter.

[@user-es4dn2ww5b]

Yahooooo

[@elizabethmerriman531]

I wail like this sometimes....

[@bostonsandatot4948]

I enjoy this song in all the versions he's done. As much as I love Nick Cave, his campy voice doesn't do the song as well as Cash's sincere voice. I also like the original and the call back.

[@zmw711]

Portals to Hell S3 E9 - Ernestine and Hazel's Jukebox "randomly" played this as they spoke of the place's history.

[@leahharris5]

❤. Rest In Peace 🕊️🕊️ Johnny Cash ❤

[@ezekieljudah2780]

I love how he's singing in an AFTER death story

[@billmeade9029]

He does that on The Green Green Grass of Home also 👍

[@Pocketwatch44]

Know one knows but me it's a awesome song

[@kgthalia]

Chase sings this in Where the Crawdads Sing. Funny that this song is almost like the story of the movie.

[@user-te1jx3jf6k]

[@tastas8554]

Check out The chieftains & Mick Jaggers version

[@Willownicley]

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, then you won't have to die I spoke not a word, thou 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 Nobody knows, nobody sees Nobody knows but me Oh, the scaffold is high and eternity's near She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear But late at night, when the north wind blows 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

[@olegvorodin6337]

Классная музыка!!!

[@Zopf-international]

Back in Scotland, the Carter Cash family were held in high regard. Royalty even. And you all know why.

[@geoffreyhughes1]

The Band has the best version of this song. The musical skill and the backup vocals are superior.

[@BrewerUMich91]

Dave Matthews Band has the best version

[@kellyaiken7601]

Lefty Frizzell sang this first

[@robertmenzel1339]

love and marrige

So glad the death penalty doesn’t exist here in adventure bay lol this is in Canada

Little band called Hurricane Creek does a cover that is my favorite version but I can’t find it

MAYBE IRA HAYES BYE CROOK

[@carolyngordin6091]

AND HIS SHOOTING OF ME

[@lee-ur7nt]

My favorite is Fred Neil's version.

[@danlamay7035]

Had a lady friend at church, pray for me. In a vision, I saw a long black veil lifting, off my eyes. I guess the long black veil, represents secret sin.

[@andreyalkhovik9818]

Я по этому человеку учу английский. В суде пока не выступлю, но пива в баре попросить смогу. Duos tequila s un duos cervesas порфавор
