The Black Velvet Band - The Dubliners[00:00:00]

In a neat little town they called Belfast[00:00:07]

Apprentice to trade I was bound[00:00:11]

And many an hour sweet happiness[00:00:15]

Have I spent in that neat little town[00:00:19]

As sad misfortune came over me[00:00:23]

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

Far away from me friends and relations[00:00:30]

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

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

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

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:00:46]

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[00:01:01]

I meet but this pretty fair maid[00:01:03]

Come a-traipsing along the highway[00:01:06]

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

Her neck it was just like a swan[00:01:13]

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

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:21]

Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:01:25]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:01:29]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:32]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:36]

I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid[00:01:41]

And a gentleman passing us by[00:01:44]

Well I knew she meant the doing of him[00:01:48]

By the look in her roguish black eye[00:01:52]

A gold watch she took from his pocket[00:01:56]

And placed it right into my hand[00:02:00]

And the very first thing that I said was[00:02:04]

Bad cess to the black velvet band[00:02:08]

Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:02:12]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:02:15]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:02:19]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:23]

Before the judge and the jury[00:02:27]

Next morning I had to appear[00:02:31]

The judge he says to me[00:02:35]

Young man you're case it is proven clear[00:02:38]

We'll give you seven years penal servitude[00:02:43]

To be spent far away from the land[00:02:47]

Far away from your friends and relations[00:02:51]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:02:55]

Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:02:59]

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

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:06]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:11]
