The Tennessee Waltz

I was dancing with my darlin'

To the Tennessee Waltz

When an old friend I happened to see

I introduced him to my darling

And while they were dancing

My friend stole my sweetheart from me

I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz

And I knew just how much I have lost

Yes I lost my little darlin'

The night they were playing

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz

Now I go to the apartment

To spend my time drinking

Try to forget where or when

When I look into my whisky

Then I start thinking

In the Tennessee Waltz plays again

I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz

And I know just how much I have lost

Yes I lost my little darlin'

The night they were playing

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
