Black Velvet

歌詞

(originally by Alannah Myles) 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 give you longing for Black velvet and that little boy's smile Black velvet with that slow southern style A new religion that'll bring you to your knees Black velvet if you please Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave White lightning, bound to drive you wild Mama's baby in the heart of every schoolgirl "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 give you longing for Black velvet and that little boy's smile Black velvet with that slow southern style A new religion that'll bring you to your knees Black velvet if you please Every song, every word that he sang was so surely 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 you 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 you to your knees Black velvet if you please, yeah
