Black Velvet Lyrics

[00:22.85] Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
[00:28.28] Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
[00:33.48] Mama's dancin' with a baby on her shoulder
[00:38.76] The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
[00:43.97] The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
[00:49.36] Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
[00:54.52] Black velvet and that little boy's smile
[00:59.91] Black velvet with that slow southern style
[01:05.05] A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
[01:10.45] Black velvet if you please
[01:16.91]
[01:23.58] Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
[01:28.75] White lightning, bound to drive you wild
[01:34.39] Mama's baby's in the heart of every schoolgirl
[01:39.52] "Love Me Tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
[01:44.88] The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
[01:49.93] Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
[01:55.38] Black velvet and that little boy's smile
[02:00.65] Black velvet with that slow southern style
[02:05.73] A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
[02:11.17] Black velvet if you please
[02:18.97] Every word of every song that he sang was for you
[02:26.68]
[02:29.66] In a flash, he was gone, it happened so soon
[02:38.16] What could you do?
[02:53.82]
[03:01.66] Black velvet and that little boy's smile
[03:07.05] Black velvet with that slow southern style
[03:12.16] A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
[03:17.32] Black velvet if you please
[03:22.79] Black velvet and that little boy's smile
[03:28.03] Black velvet with that slow southern style
[03:33.05] A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
[03:38.64] Black velvet if you please
[03:49.10]
[03:53.38] If you please
[03:57.42]
[04:04.03] If you please
[04:10.95]
[04:14.72] If you please
[04:16.85]
