I was dancin′ with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced her to my darlin'
While they were dancin'
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
And I knew just how much I had lost
Yes I lost my little darlin′
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
Now I go to in the bron
Spin my time drinking
And try to forget where were when
But I look into my whisky
And then I stop thinking
And the Tennessee Waltz
Place again
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
And I knew just how much I had lost
Yes I lost my little darlin'
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
