Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rodgers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulders
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move and everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

Black velvet in my 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 heat wave
White Lightnin' bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's 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 leave you longing for

Black velvet in my little boy's smile
Black velvet in his slow Southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

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?

Whoo oo, whoo oo, whoa, whoa
Black velvet in my little boy's smile
Black velvet in his slow Southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

Black velvet in my little boy's smile
Black velvet in his slow Southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please, yes
If you please
