Rosanne Cash — Long Black Veil
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 did agree
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, though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
