lirik lagu culann's hounds - the black velvet band
in a neat little town they call belfast
an apprentice to a trade i was bound
and many’s the hour sweet happiness
i spent in this neat little town
till a sad misfortune came over me
and forced me to stray from the land
far away from my friends and relations
bad luck to the black velvet band
her eyes they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band
as i went out strolling one evening
not inteadning to stray very far
i met with a frolicsome damsel
playing her trade at the bar
a gold watch she stole from a patron
and placed it right into my hand
on the very first day that i met her
bad luck to the black velvet band
her eyes they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band
her eyes they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band
to judge and the jury next morning
for trial i had to appear
said the judge “my young fellow
the case against you is quite clear
i’ll give you seven years penal servitude
to be spent far away from the land
far away from your friends and relations
your going to van diemans land
her eyes they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band
her eyes they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band
so come all me young fellow
my advice to take by me
whenever you’re out on the laker
beware of the pretty cailín
for she will fill you with strong [?]
until you’re unable to stand
and the very next thing that you know me lads
you’re going to van diemans land
her eyes they shone like the diamonds
you’d think she was queen of the land
and her hair hung over her shoulders
tied up with a black velvet band
tied up with a black velvet band
