Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with a baby on her shoulder
The Sun is settin' like molasses in the skyThe boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more
He'd leave you longing forBlack 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 pleaseUp in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightning, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every schoolgirl
Love Me Tender leaves 'em cryin' in the aisleThe way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more
He'd leave you longing forBlack 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 pleaseEvery 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 pleaseBlack 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 pleaseIf you please
If you please
If you please
