In a neat little town they call Brockton<br />
Apprenticed in trade I was bound <br />
And many an hour's sweet happiness <br />
I spent in that neat little town <br />
Then bad misfortune befell me <br />
That caused me to stray from the land <br />
Far away from my friends and companions <br />
To follow the black velvet band <br />
<br />
Well, I was out strolling one evening <br />
Not intending to stay very long <br />
When I met a frolicsome damsel<br />
As she came tripping along<br />
A watch she pulled out her pocket<br />
And slipped it right into my hand <br />
On the very first night that I met her,<br />
Bad luck to the black velvet band <br />
<br />

Her eyes they shone like the diamonds <br />
You'd think she was queen of the land <br />
And her hair hung over her shoulder <br />
Tied up in a black velvet band<br />
<br />
Before judge and jury next morning <br />
Both of us did appear <br />
A gentleman claimed his jewelry<br />
And the case against us was clear <br />
Now seven long years transportation <br />
Right down to Van Dieman's land <br />
Far away from our friends and companions <br />
To follow the black velvet band <br />
<br />
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds <br />
You'd think she was queen of the land <br />
And her hair hung over her shoulder <br />
Tied up in a black velvet band<br />
<br />

So come all you jolly young fellows <br />
I'd have you take warning by me <br />
Whenever you're out on the liquor <br />
Beware of the pretty Colleen<br />
She'll fill you with vodka and twinoid <br />
Until you're not able to stand<br />
And the very next thing you'd know<br />
You've landed in Van Dieman's Land. <br />
<br />
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds <br />
You'd think she was queen of the land <br />
And her hair hung over her shoulder <br />
Tied up in a black velvet band<br />
