1
If you listen a story I'll tell you
2
Of a girl who once lived in this land
3
A girl who was once my sweetheart
4
She was know as The Blue Velvet Band
5
On her cheeks was the first flush of nature
6
Her beauty, it seemed to expand
7
Her hair hung down in long tresses
8
Tied back with a blue velvet band
9
I can still see those tears as we parted
10
Of my heart broken Blue Velvet Band
11
As I left I told her I'd never
12
Come back to my old home again
13
Five years on the wide open spaces
14
Was all that my poor heart could stand
15
Every night as I lay on my pillow
16
I would dream of my Blue Velvet Band
17
Then one night as I lay down dreaming
18
Of home and poor mother and dad
19
Like a flash by my bedside was standing
20
The form of my Blue Velvet Band
21
I started next day for my darling
22
Just to go back and make her my bride
23
But as I reached the old country depot
24
They told my my sweet heart has died
25
They laid her to rest in the churchyard
26
Midst the sweet summer flowers of the land
27
On her finger the ring I had bought her
28
On her head was a blue velvet band
