Alannah Miles Black velvet

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 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 Up in Memphis the music s like a heatwave White lightening, bound to drive you wild Mama s baby s 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 chorus 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 (Solo) chorus repeats 2x If you please, if you please, if you please
