Black Velvet

 

 

Mississipi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola's up high
Mama's dancin' with the baby on her shoulder
the sun is settin like molasses in the sky
the boy could sing knew how to move
everything
always wanting more
he leaves you longin' for

Black velvet and that little boy's smile
black velvet and that slow southern style
a new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

Every word and every song that he sang was for you
in a flash he was gone and it happened too soon

Refrain x2
