Black Velvet Lyrics
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 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 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 Every word of every song that he sang was for
you In a flash he was gone, it happened so soonWhat
could you do? 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 pleaseBlack 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 pleaseIf you
please, if you please, if you please

this song played before both concerts that i saw lisa on this leg of the tour....

they played it in Ft Wayne too! I told my bff that it was about Elvis but she didn't believe me!

Played in Austin, right b4 she came on.

Wow! They played it just before the Miami Oklahoma show also! Interesting....

I was told by vdd that they play it at all of lisa's shows.

I love that song!! I have that video on my MySpace right now!!

OH MY GOD!! YAY!!! Thanks Heather.

I love that song too. Never saw the lyrics printed out before; thanks for posting them math!

Does anyone know if Alyannah Miles has had an album recently?

it's a pretty big DUH that it is about elvis...

the biggest dead give away is that "love me tender", "memphis" and "little boy smile" are in the lyrics.

doesn't take a brain surgeon.

yeah, i got a lot of shocked faces when some friends of mine were talking about the song and i told them it was about elvis, even citing the lyrics.

black velvet and walking in memphis (i prefer cher's version)...are the best elvis tribute/heavy reference songs outside of nobody noticed it/lights out.

"I get lonesome sometimes, I get lonesome right in the middle of a crowd."
"Don't criticize what you don't understand, son. You never walked in that man's shoes."
"You only pass through this life once, you don't come back for an encore."
