《Black Velvet Band》歌词

[00:00:00] Black Velvet Band - Waxy Brothers

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

[00:00:04] Apprentice to trade I was bound

[00:00:08] And many an hour of sweet happiness

[00:00:12] I spent in that neat little town

[00:00:16] Tell a sad misfortune came over me

[00:00:20] Which caused me to stray from the land

[00:00:23] Far away from my friends and relations

[00:00:28] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:00:32] Her eyes

[00:00:33] They shone like diamonds

[00:00:36] I thought she was queen of the land

[00:00:39] And her hair hung over her shoulders

[00:00:44] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:00:52] I took a walk down Broadway

[00:00:56] Meeting not long for to stay

[00:00:59] When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid

[00:01:03] Come traipsing along the highway

[00:01:07] She was both fair and handsome

[00:01:11] Her neck it was just like a swan

[00:01:15] And her hair

[00:01:16] Hung down over her shoulders

[00:01:19] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:23] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:01:27] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:01:31] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:01:35] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:43] I took a walk with this pretty fair maid

[00:01:47] Met a gentleman as he passed by

[00:01:50] What I knew that she meant the doing of him

[00:01:54] By the look in her roguish black eye

[00:01:59] A gold watch she took from his pocket

[00:02:02] And placed it right into my hand

[00:02:06] And the very first thing that I said was

[00:02:10] What's this to the black velvet band

[00:02:14] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:02:18] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:02:22] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:02:26] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:02:34] But before the Judge and the Jury

[00:02:38] Next morning I had to appear

[00:02:42] And the judge he says to me

[00:02:45] Young man your case it is proven and clear

[00:02:50] I'll give seven years penal servitude

[00:02:54] To be spent to Van Diemen's Land

[00:02:58] Far away from your friends and relations

[00:03:02] Betrayed by the black velvet band

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

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

[00:03:14] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:03:18] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:03:22] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:03:26] I thought she was queen of the land

[00:03:30] And her hair hung over her shoulders

[00:03:34] Tied up with a black velvet band
