the sun is setting like molasses in the sky
I put on my black velvet dress just for you tonight.
Red lipstick.
You would have loved it.
But I was nervous.
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 and that slow southern style
A new religion that’ll bring you to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Tonight we broke our plans
To play games with our hearts
