Alannah Myles - Black Velvet (by Andreea Coman)

[Verse 1] Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell Jimmie Rodgers on the Victrola up high Mama’s dancin’ with baby on her shoulder The sun is settin’ like molasses in the sky [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Pre-Chorus] The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true 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 [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? [Guitar Solo] [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 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 [Outro] If you please If you please If you please
