《The Black Velvet Band》歌词

[00:00:00] The Black Velvet Band - The High Kings

[00:00:12] In a neat little town they call Belfast

[00:00:18] Apprenticed to trade I was bound

[00:00:25] Many an hours sweet happiness

[00:00:32] Have I spent in that neat little town

[00:00:38] A sad misfortune came over me

[00:00:44] Which caused me to stray from the land

[00:00:50] Far away from my friends and relations

[00:00:57] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:01:03] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:01:08] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:01:13] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:01:18] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:26] I took a stroll down Broadway

[00:01:30] Meaning not long for to stay

[00:01:35] When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid

[00:01:40] Come a trapsing along the highway

[00:01:44] She was both fair and handsome

[00:01:48] Her neck it was just like a swans

[00:01:53] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:01:58] Tied up with a black velvet band

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

[00:02:07] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:02:11] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:02:16] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:02:31] I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid

[00:02:35] And a gentleman passing us by

[00:02:39] Oh I knew she meant the un-doing of him

[00:02:44] By the look in her roguish black eye

[00:02:48] A gold watch she took from his pocket

[00:02:53] And slipped it right in to my hand

[00:02:57] And the very first thing that I said was

[00:03:02] Bad 'cess to the black velvet band

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

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

[00:03:15] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:03:19] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:03:26] Seven long years penal servitude

[00:03:31] I spent down in Van Diemen's Land

[00:03:35] Far away from my friends and relations

[00:03:41] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:03:46] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:03:50] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:03:54] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:03:58] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:04:03] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:04:07] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:04:11] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:04:19] Tied up with a black velvet band
