Black Velvet

Ooo

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 in thе heart of every schoolgirl
"Lovе 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
