Black Velvet - Waxy Brothers/The Velvet Players

In a neat little town they call belfast

Apprentice to trade I was bound

How miss many an hours sweet happiness

Have I spent in that neat little town

A 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 shone 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 walk down broadway

Meaning not long for to stay

When who should I meet but this pretty fair

Maid comes 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 shone 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 walk with this pretty fair maid

And a gentleman passing us by

Well I knew that 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 in to my hand

And the very next thing that I said

Was bad 'cess to the black velvet band

Her eyes they shone 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

And the judge he says to me

Young man your case it is proven quiet clear

Are you get seven years penal servitude

To be spent often faraway from the land

Far away from your friends and relations

Betrayed by the black velvet band

Her eyes they shone 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 shone 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
