In a neat little town they call Brockton
Apprenticed in trade I was bound
And many an hour of sweet happiness
I spent in that neat little town
Then bad misfortune befell me
And caused me to stray from the land
Far away from my friends and companions
To follow the black velvet band

As I was out strolling one evening
Not intending to stay very long
I met a frolicsome damsel
As she came tripping along
A watch she pulled out her pocket
And slipped it right into my hand
On the very first night that I met her
Bad luck to the black velvet band

her eyes, they shone like the diamond
You'd think she was queen of the land
And her hair hung over her shoulder
Tied up in a black velvet band

Before judge and jury next morning
Both of us did appear
A gentleman claimed his jewelry
And the case against us was clear
Now seven long years transportation
Right down to the Van Dieman's land
Far away from my friends and companions
To follow the black velvet band

[chorus]

So come all you jolly young fellows
I'll have you take warning by me
Whenever youre out on the liquor
Beware of the pretty Colleen
She'll fill you with whiskey and porter
Until youre not able to stand
And the very next thing you'd know
You've landed in Van Dieman's land


Mirror lyrics:

You've landed in Van Dieman's land
And the very next thing you'd know
Until youre not able to stand
She'll fill you with whiskey and porter
Beware of the pretty Colleen
Whenever youre out on the liquor
I'll have you take warning by me
So come all you jolly young fellows

[chorus]

To follow the black velvet band
Far away from my friends and companions
Right down to the Van Dieman's land
Now seven long years transportation
And the case against us was clear
A gentleman claimed his jewelry
Both of us did appear
Before judge and jury next morning

Tied up in a black velvet band
And her hair hung over her shoulder
You'd think she was queen of the land
her eyes, they shone like the diamond

Bad luck to the black velvet band
On the very first night that I met her
And slipped it right into my hand
A watch she pulled out her pocket
As she came tripping along
I met a frolicsome damsel
Not intending to stay very long
As I was out strolling one evening

To follow the black velvet band
Far away from my friends and companions
And caused me to stray from the land
Then bad misfortune befell me
I spent in that neat little town
And many an hour of sweet happiness
Apprenticed in trade I was bound
In a neat little town they call Brockton
