Mississippi in the middle of a
dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up
high
Mama's dancing with baby on her
shoulder
The sun is setting 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 lightening, bound to drive
you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of
every school girl
Love me tender leaves 'em crying
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
