《The Black Velvet Band》歌词

[00:00:00] The Black Velvet Band - The Dubliners

[00:00:07] In a neat little town they called Belfast

[00:00:11] Apprentice to trade I was bound

[00:00:15] And many an hour sweet happiness

[00:00:19] Have I spent in that neat little town

[00:00:23] As sad misfortune came over me

[00:00:26] Which caused me to stray from the land

[00:00:30] Far away from me friends and relations

[00:00:34] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:00:38] Her eyes they shown like diamonds

[00:00:42] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:00:46] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:00:50] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:00:54] I took a stroll down broadway

[00:00:58] Meaning not long for to stay

[00:01:01] When who should

[00:01:03] I meet but this pretty fair maid

[00:01:06] Come a-traipsing along the highway

[00:01:09] She was both fair and handsome

[00:01:13] Her neck it was just like a swan

[00:01:17] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:01:21] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:25] Her eyes they shown like diamonds

[00:01:29] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:01:32] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:01:36] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:41] I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid

[00:01:44] And a gentleman passing us by

[00:01:48] Well I knew she meant the doing of him

[00:01:52] By the look in her roguish black eye

[00:01:56] A gold watch she took from his pocket

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

[00:02:04] And the very first thing that I said was

[00:02:08] Bad cess to the black velvet band

[00:02:12] Her eyes they shown like diamonds

[00:02:15] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:02:19] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:02:23] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:02:27] Before the judge and the jury

[00:02:31] Next morning I had to appear

[00:02:35] The judge he says to me

[00:02:38] Young man you're case it is proven clear

[00:02:43] We'll give you seven years penal servitude

[00:02:47] To be spent far away from the land

[00:02:51] Far away from your friends and relations

[00:02:55] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:02:59] Her eyes they shown like diamonds

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

[00:03:06] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:03:11] Tied up with a black velvet band
