lirik lagu black velvet band – the blarney lads
[intro]
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
[verse 1]
in a neat little town they called belfast
apprentice to trade i was bound
and manys an hour sweet happiness
have i spent in that neat little town
’til a sad misfortune came over me
which caused me to stray from the land
far away from me friends and relations
betrayed by a black velvet band
[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamond
i thought her the queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
[verse 2]
as i was walkin’ down broadway
meaning not long for to stay
well, who should i meet but this pretty, fair maid
come a*traipsing along the highway
she was both fair and handsome
her neck, it was just like a swan’s
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamond
i thought her the queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
[verse 3]
i took a stroll with this pretty, fair maid
and the gentleman passing us by
well, i knew she meant the doing of him
by the look in her roguish, black eye
a gold watch she took from his pocket
and placed it right into me hand
and the very first thing that i hear was
i’d landed in van dieman’s land
[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamond
i thought her the queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
[verse 4]
before the judge and the jury
next morning, i had to appear
and the judge he says to me, “young man
your case, it is proven quite clear”
we’ll give you seven years penal servitude
to be spent far away from the land
far away from your friends and relations
access to the black velvet band
[chorus]
her eyes, they shone like the diamond
i thought her the queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
[outro]
and her hair hung over her shoulder
tied up with a black velvet band
