Black Velvet |
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell |
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high |
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder |
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky |
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything |
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for |
Black velvet and that little boy's smile |
Black velvet with that slow southern style |
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees |
Black velvet if you please |
Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave |
White lightning, bound to drive you wild |
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl |
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle |
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true |
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for |
Black velvet and that little boy's smile |
Black velvet with that slow southern style |
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees |
Black velvet if you please |
Every word of every song that he sang was for you |
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could |
You do? |
Black velvet and that little boy's smile |
Black velvet with that slow southern style |
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees |
Black velvet if you please |
Black velvet and that little boy's smile |
Black velvet with that slow southern style |
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees |
Black velvet if you please |
If you please, if you please, if you please |
