Two versions of "The Blue Velvet Band", one sung by Hank Snow:
On her cheeks was the first flush of nature, Her beauty it seemed to expand Her hair hung down in long tresses Tied back by a blue velvet band.
The other by I'm not sure who:
I was walking one morning in Frisco The hour was just about nine When I spied a beautiful maiden On the corner of 40 and Pine
We walked down the street together In my pocket she placed her small hand She planted the evidence on me The girl in the blue velvet band.
I know most if not all of the second version but I will have to look up the lyrics of the first.
