I was dancing

With my darling

To the Tennessee Waltz

When an old friend

I happened to see

I introduced her

To my loved one

And while they were dancing

My friend stole

My sweetheart from me

I remember the night

And the Tennessee Waltz

Now I know just

How much I have lost

Yes I lost my little darling

The night they were playing

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz

I remember the night

And the Tennessee Waltz

Now I know just how much

I have lost

Yes I lost my little darling

The night they were playing

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
