Black Velvet Band - Waxy Brothers[00:00:00]
In a neat little town they call Belfast[00:00:00]
Apprentice to trade I was bound[00:00:04]
And many an hour of sweet happiness[00:00:08]
I spent in that neat little town[00:00:12]
Tell a sad misfortune came over me[00:00:16]
Which caused me to stray from the land[00:00:20]
Far away from my friends and relations[00:00:23]
Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:00:28]
Her eyes[00:00:32]
They shone like diamonds[00:00:33]
I thought she was queen of the land[00:00:36]
And her hair hung over her shoulders[00:00:39]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:00:44]
I took a walk down Broadway[00:00:52]
Meeting not long for to stay[00:00:56]
When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid[00:00:59]
Come traipsing along the highway[00:01:03]
She was both fair and handsome[00:01:07]
Her neck it was just like a swan[00:01:11]
And her hair[00:01:15]
Hung down over her shoulders[00:01:16]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:19]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:01:23]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:01:27]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:31]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:35]
I took a walk with this pretty fair maid[00:01:43]
Met a gentleman as he passed by[00:01:47]
What I knew that she meant the doing of him[00:01:50]
By the look in her roguish black eye[00:01:54]
A gold watch she took from his pocket[00:01:59]
And placed it right into my hand[00:02:02]
And the very first thing that I said was[00:02:06]
What's this to the black velvet band[00:02:10]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:02:14]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:02:18]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:02:22]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:26]
But before the Judge and the Jury[00:02:34]
Next morning I had to appear[00:02:38]
And the judge he says to me[00:02:42]
Young man your case it is proven and clear[00:02:45]
I'll give seven years penal servitude[00:02:50]
To be spent to Van Diemen's Land[00:02:54]
Far away from your friends and relations[00:02:58]
Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:03:02]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:06]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:10]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:14]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:18]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:22]
I thought she was queen of the land[00:03:26]
And her hair hung over her shoulders[00:03:30]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:34]
