Default Unknown Up-late radio song

I was listening to the radio past 2am the other night and heard these lyrics

"Mississippi in a dry spell"
"Up in Memphis, the music's like a heat wave"
"Baby don't cha worry, I'm gonna be the man you want me to be"

There were other words in between these, that I can't remember now.

It was a beautiful song and I've been unable to find any trace of it on the web.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Could it be "Black Velvet" by Alannah Myles?


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

Chorus:
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

chorus

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?

(Solo)

chorus repeats 2x

If you please, if you please, if you please

No, I found and listened to that one in my search.

Though I think the one I'm looking for has been influence by that song

I forgot to mention it's sung by a man with a smooth slow voice.
And I think he was backed by guitar and maybe some sax, but I'm not sure of the last

Thanks anyway
