Black Velvet Band - Damien Leith[00:00:00]

In a neat little town they call Belfast[00:00:06]

Apprentice to trade I was bound[00:00:10]

Hey many an hours sweet happiness[00:00:13]

I spent in that neat little town[00:00:18]

A sad misfortune came over me[00:00:22]

Which cause me to stray from the land[00:00:26]

Far away from my friends and relations[00:00:29]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:00:34]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:00:38]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:00:42]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:00:45]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:00:50]

I took a stroll down Broadway[00:00:54]

Meaning not long for to stay[00:00:58]

When who should I meet but this pretty fair[00:01:02]

Maid comes a trapsing along the highway[00:01:05]

She was both fair and handsome[00:01:09]

Her neck it was just like a swan[00:01:14]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:17]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:22]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:01:26]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:01:30]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:33]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:38]

I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid[00:01:42]

And a gentleman passing us by[00:01:46]

I knew that she meant the doing of him[00:01:49]

By the look in her roguish black eye[00:01:53]

A goldwatch she took from his pocket[00:01:58]

And placed it right in to my hand[00:02:02]

And the very first thing that I said[00:02:05]

Was bad cess to the black velvet band[00:02:09]

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[00:02:21]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:26]

Before the judge and the jury[00:02:46]

Next morning I had to appear[00:02:50]

And the judge he says to me[00:02:53]

Young man your case it is proven and clear[00:02:57]

We'll give you seven years penal servitude[00:03:02]

To be spent faraway from the land[00:03:06]

Far away from your friends and come panies[00:03:09]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:03:14]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:17]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:22]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:25]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:30]

So come all you jolly young[00:03:33]

Fellows a warning take by me[00:03:36]

When never you are out on the town me lads[00:03:41]

Beware of them pretty colleens[00:03:46]

For they feed you follow strong drink yeah[00:03:49]

Till you are unable to stand[00:03:54]

And the very next thing that you'll know is[00:03:57]

You've landed in Van Diemens Land[00:04:02]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:04:06]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:04:10]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:04:13]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:04:18]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:04:22]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:04:26]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:04:29]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:04:34]
