Black Velver Band - The Blackwater Boys[00:00:00]
In a neat little town they called belfast[00:00:01]
Apprentice to trade I was bound[00:00:05]
And it's many is hour sweet happiness[00:00:09]
I spent in that neat little town[00:00:13]
Telling sad misfortune came over me[00:00:17]
Which caused me to stray from the land[00:00:21]
Far away from me friends and relations[00:00:25]
Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:00:29]
Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:00:33]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:00:37]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:00:40]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:00:45]
I took a walk up broadway[00:00:53]
Meaning not long for to stay[00:00:57]
When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid[00:01:00]
Come a traipsing along the highway[00:01:04]
She was both fair and handsome[00:01:08]
Her neck it was just like a swan[00:01:12]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:16]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:20]
Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:01:24]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:01:28]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:32]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:36]
I took a walk with this pretty fair maid[00:01:44]
And a gentleman passing us by[00:01:48]
Well I knew that she meant the doing of him[00:01:52]
By the look in her roguish black eye[00:01:56]
A gold watch she took from his pocket[00:02:00]
And placed it right into my hand[00:02:03]
And the very next thing that I said was[00:02:07]
Bad access to the black velvet band[00:02:11]
Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:02:15]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:02:19]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:02:23]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:27]
Before the judge and the jury[00:02:35]
Next morning I had to appear[00:02:39]
And the judge he says to me[00:02:43]
Young man you're case it is proven quite clear[00:02:46]
Oh you give seven years penal servitude[00:02:51]
To be spent often from the even land[00:02:55]
Far away from your friends and relations[00:02:59]
Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:03:03]
Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:03:07]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:11]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:15]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:19]
Her eyes they shown like diamonds[00:03:23]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:27]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:31]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:35]
