I was dancin' with my darlin'
To the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend
I happened to see
I introduced her
To my loved one
And while they were dancin'
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 darlin'
The night they were playin'
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 darlin'
The night they were playin'
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
