Christy Moore & The Dubliners - Black Velvet Band
"The Black Velvet Band" is a traditional Irish folk song concerning the waves of Irish people who were sent to places like Australia for their crimes. This song is about a tradesman who meets a young woman who has stolen an item and passed it on to him (the lyrics of the song vary from place to place). The man then appears in court the next day, charged with stealing the item and is sent to Australia for doing so. This version by Christy and the Dubliners is from 1987.
