Black Velvet piano leadsheet with chords
Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell.
Jimmie Rodgers on the Victrola drive up high.
Mama's dancin' is with baby on her shoulder.
The sun is settin' like leaves molasses in the sky.
The boy could sing;
knew how to move ev'rything.
and true.
Always wanting more.
He'd leave you longing for
black velvet and that little boy smile.
Black velvet with that slow southern style.
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees.
Black velvet, if you please.
Up in Memphis in the mid music's like a wave.
"White mie Lightnin'" on the Victrola drive you wild.
Mama's bain' is with the of ev'ry schoolgirl.
The "Love Me Tentin' der" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle.
The way he moved it was a sin so sweet thing.
and true.
Always wanting more.
He'd leave you longing for
black velvet and that little boy smile.
Black velvet and that slow southern style.
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees.
Black velvet, if you please.
Black velvet, if you please.
Ev'ry word of ev'ry song that he sang was for you.
In a flash he was gone;
it happened so soon.
What could you do?
Black velvet and that little boy smile.
Black velvet in that slow southern style.
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees.
Black velvet, if you please.
Black velvet and that little boy smile.
Black velvet in that slow southern style.
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees.
Black velvet, if you please.
Black velvet, if you please.
If you please.
If you please.
If you please.
Mm. Mm.
If you please.
If you please.
Mm. Mm.
