Boot Heel Drag

de Mac Wiseman

One evening while out for a ramble
The hour was just about nine
I met a young maiden in Frisco
On the corner of Cherry and Pine

On her face there was beauty of nature
And her eyes seem to expand
Her hair so rich and so brilliant
Was entwined in a blue velvet band

We strolled down the street together
In my pocket she placed her small hand
She planted the evidence on me
A diamond that was worth ten grand

Well I heard the scream of the sirens
And the girl in the blue velvet band
She left me to face all the troubles
With a diamond that was worth ten grand

They sent me to San Quentin for steali
But the guilty one now she lies dying
My girl in the blue velvet band

At night when bedtime is ringing
I stand looking out through the bars
I fancy I hear her voice calling
Far out on that ocean of stars

I'll be out in a week and I'm leaving
But I'll carry that name of a man
Who spent ten years in prison
For the girl in the blue velvet band

When I get out I will endeavor
To live in some far distant land
I’ll bid farewell to old Frisco
And the girl in the blue velvet band
