The Blue Velvet Band - Hank Snow[00:00:00]

If you listen a story I＇ll tell you[00:00:29]

Of a girl who once lived in this land[00:00:34]

A girl who once was my sweetheart[00:00:39]

She was known as the Blue Velvet Band [00:00:44]

On her cheeks was the first flush of nature[00:00:49]

Her beauty it seemed to expand[00:00:54]

Her hair hung down in long tresses[00:01:00]

Tied back with a blue velvet band [00:01:04]

I can still see those tears as we parted[00:01:06]

Of my heart broken blue velvet band[00:01:13]

As I left her I told her[00:01:17]

I＇ll never come back to my home again[00:01:20]

Five years in the wide open spaces[00:01:27]

Was all that my poor heart could stand[00:01:34]

Every night as I lay on my pillow[00:01:37]

I would dream of my Blue Velvet Band[00:01:42]

Then one night as I lay down dreaming[00:01:44]

Of home and poor mother and dad[00:01:49]

Like a flash by my bedside was standing[00:01:57]

The form of my Blue Velvet Band[00:02:01]

I started next day for my darling[00:02:06]

Just to go back and make her my bride[00:02:11]

But as I reached the old country depot[00:02:15]

They told me my sweetheart had died[00:02:20]

They laid her to rest in the churchyard[00:02:25]

Midst the sweet summer flowers of the land[00:02:29]

On her finger was the ring I had bought her[00:02:34]

On her head was a blue velvet band[00:02:40]
