《The Black Velvet Band》歌词

[00:00:00] Black Velvet Band - Paddy Reilly

[00:00:04] In a neat little town they call Belfast

[00:00:08] Apprentice to trade I was bound

[00:00:12] And many's an hour's tour

[00:00:16] I spent in that neat little town

[00:00:21] A sad misfortune came over me

[00:00:25] But caused me to stray from the land

[00:00:29] Far away from my friends and relations

[00:00:33] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:00:37] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:00:41] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:00:45] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:00:49] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:00:53] As I took a stroll down broad way

[00:00:57] Meaning not long for to stay

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

[00:01:05] Comes a tripping along the highway

[00:01:10] She was both fair and handsome

[00:01:14] Her neck it was just like a swans

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

[00:01:22] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:26] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:01:30] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:01:34] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:01:38] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:51] I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid

[00:01:55] And a gentleman passing us by

[00:01:59] Well I knew she meant the doing of him

[00:02:03] By the look in her roguish black eye

[00:02:07] A gold watch she took from his pocket

[00:02:11] And placed it right in to my hand

[00:02:15] And the very first thing that I said was

[00:02:19] But luck to the black velvet band

[00:02:23] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:02:27] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:02:31] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:02:35] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:02:40] Before the judge and the jury

[00:02:42] Next morning the bowl to fast then of appear

[00:02:48] And gentlemen playing his jugular

[00:02:52] He says gone to your it is clear

[00:02:56] We'll give you seven long years penetration

[00:03:00] Re down down to founded with the land

[00:03:04] Far away from your friends and companions

[00:03:08] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:03:12] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:03:16] You swear her the queen of the land

[00:03:20] And her hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:03:25] Tied up with a black velvet band
