I was dancin' with my baby to the tennessee waltz
When an old friend i happened to see.
I introduced him to my darlin' and while they were waltzing
My friend stole my sweetheart from me.
(chorus 1)
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 playin'
Beautiful tennessee waltz
(solo - same as a verse)
