[00:00.000]Answer To Blue Velvet Band - Hank Snow
[00:06.171]By and old willow tree in the churchyard
[00:13.381]On the banks of the old Rio Grande
[00:20.831]Lies a loved one who died broken hearted
[00:28.161]She was known as the Blue Velvet Band
[00:35.501]She was called by the angels up yonder
[00:42.731]As the dew kissed the pale summer rose
[00:49.931]As we stood there in silence dishearted
[00:57.731]These words to her lover did go
[01:04.991]Dear Jack you mistrusted your darling
[01:12.101]You said that my love wasn't true
[01:19.291]You've roamed o'er the wide open spaces
[01:25.951]But my thoughts they were always of you
[01:33.331]Now my last wish was once more to see you
[01:40.561]But they say you're in some foreign land
[01:47.531]You're forgiveness is in this last message
[01:54.781]From your heartbroken Blue Velvet Band
[02:02.201]Far away o'er the lone western prairie
[02:09.651]Her message sped fast o'er the way
[02:16.501]To the side of a bed where her cowboy
[02:23.811]Was grieving his life fast away
[02:31.111]Please grant a last wish boys and lay me
[02:38.051]Out West on that old Rio Grande
[02:44.721]Neath that old willow tree in the churchyard
[02:51.781]By my sweetheart the Blue Velvet Band
