The Black Velvet Band - Ewan MacColl[00:00:00]

In a neat little town they call Belfast[00:00:04]

Apprenticed to trade I was bound[00:00:08]

An many an hours sweet happiness[00:00:12]

Have I spent in that neat little town[00:00:15]

A sad misfortune came over me[00:00:20]

And caused me to stray from the land[00:00:23]

Far away from friends and relations[00:00:27]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:00:31]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:00:35]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:00:39]

And hair it hung over her shoulder[00:00:42]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:00:46]

I took a stroll down Broadway[00:00:57]

Meaning not long for to stay[00:01:01]

When who should I see but this pretty fair maid[00:01:04]

Come a trapsing along the highway[00:01:08]

She was both fair and handsome[00:01:12]

Her neck it was just like a swans[00:01:15]

And hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:19]

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

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:37]

I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid[00:01:44]

And a gentleman passing us by[00:01:47]

I knew she meant the un-doing of him[00:01:51]

By the look in her roguish black eye[00:01:55]

This watch she took from his pocket[00:01:58]

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

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

Bad luck to the black velvet band[00:02:09]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:02:13]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:02:16]

And hair it hung over her shoulder[00:02:20]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:24]

Before the judge and the jury[00:02:41]

Next morning I had to appear[00:02:44]

The judge he says to me[00:02:48]

Young man your case it is proven clear[00:02:50]

We'll give you seven years penal servitude[00:02:55]

To be spent faraway from the land[00:02:58]

Far away from your friends and companions[00:03:02]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:03:06]

So come all you jolly young fellows[00:03:09]

A loving take warning by me[00:03:13]

When you are out on the me lads[00:03:16]

Beware of your pretty colleens[00:03:20]

When feed you do strong drink may boys[00:03:23]

'Til you are unable to stand[00:03:27]

And before you have judge to leave a bill[00:03:31]

I hure diamonds mengsly[00:03:34]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:38]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:41]

And hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:45]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:48]
