《The Black Velvet Band》歌词

[00:00:00] The Black Velvet Band - Ewan MacColl

[00:00:05] In a neat little town they call Belfast

[00:00:09] Apprenticed to trade I was bound

[00:00:13] An many an hours sweet happiness

[00:00:17] Have I spent in that neat little town

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

[00:00:25] And 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 hair it hung over her shoulder

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

[00:01:07] I took a stroll down Broadway

[00:01:12] Meaning not long for to stay

[00:01:15] When who should I see but this pretty fair maid

[00:01:19] Come a trapsing along the highway

[00:01:23] She was both fair and handsome

[00:01:27] Her neck it was just like a swans

[00:01:30] And hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:01:34] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:01:38] I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid

[00:01:42] And a gentleman passing us by

[00:01:46] I knew she meant the UN doing of him

[00:01:49] By the look in her roguish black eye

[00:01:54] This watch she took from his pocket

[00:01:57] And slipped it right in to my hand

[00:02:01] And the very next thing that I said was

[00:02:05] Bad luck to the black velvet band

[00:02:09] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:02:13] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:02:16] And hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:02:20] Tied up with a black velvet band

[00:02:38] Before the Judge and the Jury

[00:02:42] Next morning I had to appear

[00:02:46] The Judge he says to her

[00:02:49] Young man your case it is proven clear

[00:02:53] We'll give you seven years penal servitude

[00:02:57] To be spent faraway from the land

[00:03:01] Far away from your friends and companions

[00:03:04] Betrayed by the black velvet band

[00:03:08] So come all you jolly young fellows

[00:03:12] A loving take warning by me

[00:03:16] When you are out on the me lads

[00:03:19] Because beware of your pretty colleens

[00:03:23] That treed you do strong drink may boys

[00:03:27] 'Til you are unable to stand

[00:03:30] And before you have judge to leave than by land

[00:03:38] Her eyes they shone like diamonds

[00:03:42] I thought her the queen of the land

[00:03:46] And hair it hung over her shoulder

[00:03:49] Tied up with a black velvet band
