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

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

Apprentice to trade I was bound[00:00:12]

Many an hours sweet happiness [00:00:16]

Have I spent in that neat little town[00:00:20]

A sad misfortune came over me [00:00:25]

Which caused me to stray from the land[00:00:29]

Far away from me friends and relations [00:00:33]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:00:38]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:00:42]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:00:47]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:00:51]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:00:55]

I took a stroll down Broadway [00:00:59]

Meaning not long for to stay[00:01:04]

When who should I meet but this pretty fair[00:01:08]

Maid comes a trapsing along the highway[00:01:12]

She was both fair and handsome [00:01:17]

Her neck it was just like a swan[00:01:21]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder [00:01:25]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:30]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:01:34]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:01:38]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:42]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:47]

I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid [00:01:51]

And a gentleman passing us by[00:01:56]

Well I knew she meant the doing of him [00:02:00]

By the look in her roguish black eye[00:02:04]

A goldwatch she took from his pocket[00:02:08]

And placed it right in to my hand[00:02:13]

And the very first thing that I said[00:02:17]

Was bad `cess to the black velvet band[00:02:21]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:02:26]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:02:30]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:02:34]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:38]

Before the judge and the jury [00:02:43]

Next morning I had to appear[00:02:47]

The judge he says to me:[00:02:51]

Young man your case it is proven clear[00:02:54]

We'll give you seven years penal servitude [00:02:59]

To be spent faraway from the land[00:03:04]

Far away from your friends and relations [00:03:08]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:03:12]

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

I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:21]

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[00:03:34]

Fellows a warning take by me[00:03:37]

When you are out on the town me lads [00:03:42]

Beware of them pretty colleens[00:03:47]

For they feed you with strong drink [00:03:51]

Me lads 'til you are unable to stand[00:03:54]

And the very first thing that you'll know[00:03:59]

Is you've landed in Van Diemens Land[00:04:03]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:04:08]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:04:12]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:04:16]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:04:21]
