The Black Velvet Band - The High Kings[00:00:00]

In a neat little town they call Belfast[00:00:12]

Apprenticed to trade I was bound[00:00:18]

Many an hours sweet happiness[00:00:25]

Have I spent in that neat little town[00:00:32]

A sad misfortune came over me[00:00:38]

Which caused me to stray from the land[00:00:44]

Far away from my friends and relations[00:00:50]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:00:57]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:01:03]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:01:08]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:13]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:18]

I took a stroll down Broadway[00:01:26]

Meaning not long for to stay[00:01:30]

When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid[00:01:35]

Come a trapsing along the highway[00:01:40]

She was both fair and handsome[00:01:44]

Her neck it was just like a swans[00:01:48]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:53]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:58]

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

I thought her the queen of the land[00:02:07]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:02:11]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:16]

I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid[00:02:31]

And a gentleman passing us by[00:02:35]

Oh I knew she meant the un-doing of him[00:02:39]

By the look in her roguish black eye[00:02:44]

A gold watch she took from his pocket[00:02:48]

And slipped it right in to my hand[00:02:53]

And the very first thing that I said was[00:02:57]

Bad 'cess to the black velvet band[00:03:02]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:06]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:10]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:15]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:19]

Seven long years penal servitude[00:03:26]

I spent down in Van Diemen's Land[00:03:31]

Far away from my friends and relations[00:03:35]

Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:03:41]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:46]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:03:50]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:54]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:58]

Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:04:03]

I thought her the queen of the land[00:04:07]

And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:04:11]

Tied up with a black velvet band[00:04:19]
