letra de black velvet band - bodh'aktan

[verse 1]
in a neat little town they call belfast, apprentice to trade i was bound
and many an hour of sweet happiness i spent in that neat little town
but bad misfortune came o’er me, and caused me to stray from the land
far away from me friends and relations. they follow the black velvet band

[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band

[verse 2]
well, i wеnt out strolling one evening, not mеaning to go very far
when i met with a frol!cksome damsel. she was selling her trade in the bar
a watch she took from a customer, and slipped it right into my hand
then the law came and put me in prison
bad luck to her black velvet band!

[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band

[verse 3]
next morning, before judge and jury, for trial i had to appear
then the judge, he said “me young fellow, the case against you is quite clear
and seven long years is your sentence. you’re going to van diemen’s land
far away from your friends and relations. they follow the black velvet band.”
[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band

[verse 4]
now, come all ye jolly young fellows, i’ll have you take warning by me
and whenever you’re out on the liquor, me lads, beware of the pretty colleens
for they’ll fill you with whiskey and porter, till you are not able to stand
and the very next thing that you know, me lads, you’ve landed in van diemen’s land

[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band

[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land, – and she was!
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band
tied up with a black velvet band
