Black Velvet

Oh
 ♪
 Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
 Jimmie Rodgers on the Victrola up high
 Mama's dancin' with a baby on her shoulder
 The sun is settin' like molasses on the sky
 The boy could sing, knew how to move - everything
 Always wantin' 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 will 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 schoolgirl
 "Love Me Tender" leaves me 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 will 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?
