\textit{[Chorus] \\
|
|
|
|
Her eyes they shone like diamonds, \\
|
|
|
|
you think she was queen of the land. \\
|
|
|
|
With her hair thrown over her shoulder, \\
|
|
|
|
tied up with a black velvet band. \\}

As I went walking down Broadway, \\
|
|
|
|
not intending to stay very long, \\
|
|
|
|
I met with this frolicksome damsel, \\
|
|
|
|
as she came tripping along. \\

A watch she took from his pocket, \\
|
|
|
|
and slipped it right into my hand, \\
|
|
|
|
On the very first day that I met her, \\
|
|
|
|
bad luck to the black velvet band. \\

Before the judge and jury, \\
|
|
|
|
next morning we had to appear, \\
|
|
|
|
A gentleman claimed his jewellery, \\
|
|
|
|
and the case against us was clear, \\

Seven long years transportation, \\
|
|
|
|
right down to "Van Diemen's Land" \\
|
|
|
|
Far away from my friends and companions, \\
|
|
|
|
betrayed by the black velvet band, \\
