In the middle of
A dry spell
Jimmy Rodgers

On the Vicirola up high
Momma's dancin'
Ba by on her shoulders

The sun is seffin' like

Molasses in the sky
The boy could sing,

Knew how to move
Eve ryfhing
Always wanting more
He'd leave you Iongin' for

Black velvet
In that IiHle boy's smile
Black velvet

In that slow
Southern style
A new religion

Thafll bring you

To your knees
Black velvet
If you please
Up in Memphis

The music's
Like a heofwave
Momma's baby
Is in the heart

Of every schoolgirl
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

In ihaf IiHIe boy's smile
Black velvet

In that slow
Southern style
A new religion

Thafll bring you

To your knees
Black velvet
If you please
Every word
Of every song

That he sang
Was for you 000 I100 hooo
In a flash he was gone

It happened so soon
What could you do oooooo
(Instrumental Break)
Black velvet
In that little boy's smile
Black velvet

In that slow
Southern style
A new religion

Thafll bring you

To your knees
Black velvet
If you please
Black velvet
In that little boy's smile

Black velvet
In that slow
Southern style
A new religion

Thafll bring you

To your knees
Black velvet
If you please
If you please
