What's the song that talks about...?

Normally I'd just Google what I know about the song, but it's been so long since I last heard this song, and I couldn't find it anywhere, so I'll ask here. It's a country song about a man who's about to be executed for murder, but he can't tell the judge where he was because he was fooling around with his best friends wife on that day.

    "Long Black Veil" by Lefty Frizzell (1959) This is the song of a man accused of a murder he didn’t commit but his only alibi was cheating with his best friend’s wife. He dies rather than tell the truth and the song is told by his ghost. The woman is said to mourn him in the night wearing a long black veil. The song was inspired by a legend with a similar story.

    i hope this is it :)
