Hmm-mm
Hmm-mm-hmm-mm, hmm
Yeah
ย
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 molasses in the sky
They 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
ย
Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightning, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby is in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em 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'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
ย
Every word of every song that he sang was for you, ooh-ooh, ooh
ย
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon
What could you do-ooh?
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
ย
If you please
ย
If you please!
Hmm-mm-mm
Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm
