Black Velvet Band - The Waldorf String Band[00:00:00]
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds[00:00:01]
You'd think she was queen of the land[00:00:05]
And her hair hung over her shoulders[00:00:08]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:00:12]
In a neat little town they call Belfast apprentice to trade I was bound[00:00:16]
And many an hour of sweet happiness I spent in that neat little town[00:00:23]
But bad misfortune came o'er me and caused me to stray from the land[00:00:31]
Far away from my friends and relations they treat the black velvet band[00:00:38]
I took a stroll down Broadway[00:00:46]
Intending not long for to stay[00:00:50]
When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid[00:00:54]
Come traipsing along the highway[00:00:58]
She was both fair and handsome[00:01:01]
Her neck it was white like a swan[00:01:05]
And her hair hung down from her shoulders[00:01:09]
Held up with a black velvet band[00:01:13]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:01:17]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:01:20]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:01:24]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:01:28]
I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid[00:01:32]
Met a gentleman as he passed by[00:01:35]
Sure I knew she meant the doing of him[00:01:39]
By the look in her roguish black eye[00:01:43]
A gold watch she took from his pocket[00:01:47]
And placed it right into my hand[00:01:50]
And the very first thing that I said was[00:01:54]
What's this to the black velvet band[00:01:58]
But before the Judge and the Jury[00:02:02]
Next morning I had to appear[00:02:06]
And the judge he says to me[00:02:09]
Young man your case it is proven and clear[00:02:12]
I'll give you seven years penal servitude[00:02:17]
To be spent far away from the land[00:02:21]
Far away from your friends and companions[00:02:24]
Betrayed by the black velvet band[00:02:28]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:02:32]
I thought her the queen of the land[00:02:36]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:02:40]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:02:43]
So come all you jolly young fellows[00:03:02]
A warning take by me[00:03:06]
If you go out on the town me boys[00:03:11]
Beware of the pretty Colleens[00:03:14]
They'll feed you with strong drinkmy be boys[00:03:18]
And'til you are unable to stand[00:03:22]
And the very first thing that you'll know is[00:03:25]
You've landed in Van Dieman's Land[00:03:29]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:33]
I thought she was queen of the land[00:03:36]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:40]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:44]
Her eyes they shone like diamonds[00:03:48]
I thought she was queen of the land[00:03:52]
And her hair it hung over her shoulder[00:03:55]
Tied up with a black velvet band[00:03:59]
