lirik lagu black velvet band – barnbrack
in a neat little town they call belfast
apprenticed in trade i was bound
and many’s the hour of sweet happiness
i spent in that neat little town
till bad misfortune befell me
that caused me to stray from the land
far away from my friends and relations
to follow the black velvet band
her eyes they shone like the diamond
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
as i was out strolling down broadway
not intending to go very far
i met with a frolicksome damsel
applying her trade in a bar
well a watch she took from a customer
and she slipped it right into my hand
then the watch came and put me in prison
bad luck to the black velvet band
before judge and jury next morning
for our trial i had to appear
the judge, he said, “my young fellow,
the case against you is quite clear.
well seven years is your sentence.
you’re going to van dieman’s land.
far away from your friends and relations
to follow the black velvet band.”
so come all you jolly young fellows
i’d have you take warning by me
whenever you’re out on the liquor
beware of the pretty colleen
for she’ll fill you with whiskey and porter
until you’re not able to stand
and the very next thing that you notice
you’ve landed in van dieman’s land
