Intro:
Verse 1:
I was dancin', with my darlin',
To the Tennessee Waltz,
When an old friend, I happened,
I happened to see, oh yeah.
I intro-duced him, to my baby,
And while they were dancin';
My friend stole my sweetheart,
Away from me, oh yes he did.
I re-member the night,
And that beautiful Tennessee Waltz,
Now I know, just how much,
#5
I have lost, oh yeah.
You know that I lost my, lost my baby,
The night they kept on playing,
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz, oh yeah.
Verse 2:
I was dancin', with my darlin',
To the Tennessee Waltz,
When an old friend, I happened,
I happened to see, oh yeah.
I intro-duced him, to my baby,
And while they were dancin';
My friend stole my sweetheart,
Away from me, oh yes he did.
I re-member the night,
And that beautiful Tennessee Waltz,
Now I know, just how much,
#5
I have lost, oh yeah.
You know that I lost my, lost my baby,
The night they kept on playing, playing,
That beautiful, that wonderful,
That marvellous and glorious,
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
