Black Velvet Band - The Starlite Singers
In a neat little town they called Belfast

Apprentice to trade I was bound

And many an hour sweet happiness

Have I spent in that neat little town

As sad misfortune came over me
Which caused me to stray from the land

Far away from me friends and relations
Betrayed by the black velvet band

Her eyes they shown like diamonds

I thought her the queen of the land

And her hair it hung over her shoulder

Tied up with a black velvet band

I took a stroll down broad way

Meaning not long for to stay

When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid
Come a traipsing along the highway

She was both fair and handsome

Her neck it was just like a swan

And her hair it hung over her shoulder

Tied up with a black velvet band

Her eyes they shown like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land

And her hair it hung over her shoulder

Tied up with a black velvet band

I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid
And a gentleman passing us by

Well I knew she meant the doing of him

By the look in her roguish black eye

A gold watch she took from his pocket

And placed it right into my hand

And the very first thing that I said was
Bad 'cess to the black velvet band

Her eyes they shown like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land
And her hair it hung over her shoulder

Tied up with a black velvet band

Before the judge and the jury

Next morning I had to appear

The judge he says to me
Young man you're case it is proven clear

We'll give you seven years penal servitude
To be spent far away from the land

Far away from your friends and relations
Betrayed by the black velvet band

Her eyes they shown like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land

And her hair it hung over her shoulder

Tied up with a black velvet band

Her eyes they shown like diamonds

I thought her the queen of the land

And her hair it hung over her shoulder

Tied up with a black velvet band
