David Tyson - Black Velvet lyrics

[Verse 1:] 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 mola**es in the sky [Hook:] The boy could sing Knew how to move, everything Always wanting more He'd leave you longing for [Chorus:] 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 [Verse 2:] 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 'em cryin' in the aisle [Hook:] The way he moved It was a sin So sweet and true Always wanting more He'd leave you longing for [Repeat Chorus:] [Bridge:] 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? [Repeat Chorus:] Black velvet if you please If you please If you please If you please
