가사: High Kings (The). High Kings. Black Velvet Band.


In a neat little town they call Belfast
Apprenticed to trade I was bound
Many an hours sweet happiness
Have I spent in that neat little town
A sad misfortune came over me
Which caused me to stray from the land
Far away from my friends and relations
Betrayed by the black velvet band

CHORUS:

Her eyes they shone like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land
And her hair it hung over her shoulder
Tied up with a black velvet band

I took a stroll down Broadway
Meaning not long for to stay
When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid
Come a trapsing along the highway
She was both fair and handsome
Her neck it was just like a swani??s
And her hair it hung over her shoulder
Tied up with a black velvet band

CHORUS

I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid
And a 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 slipped it right in to my hand
And the very first thing that I said was
Bad ?cess to the black velvet band

CHORUS

Seven long years penal servitude
To be spent down in Van Diemeni??s Land
Far away from my friends and relations
Betrayed by the black velvet band
