I was dancin' with my darlin to the Tennessee Waltz
When na old friend I happened to see
I introduced him to my darlin' and while they were dancin'
My friends to lemys weet heart from me
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Cause I know just how much I have lost
Yes I lost my little darlin' the night they were playin'
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz
Verse two
Now I wonderhow a dance likethe Tennessee Waltz
Could have broken my heart so complete
Well, I couldn'tblamemydarlin', andwhocould help fallin'
In love with my darlin' so sweet
Well it must be the fault of the Tennessee Waltz
Wish I'd known just how much it would cost
But I didn't see it comin', it's all over but the cryin',
Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz.
Verse three
He goes dancin' with the darkness to the Tennessee Waltz,
And I feel like I'm falling apart
And it's stronger than drink and it's deep er than sorrow
This darkness he left in my heart
I was dancin' with my darlin to the Tennessee Waltz
When na old friend I happened to see
I introduced him to my darlin' and while they were dancin'
My friends to Le my sweet heart from me
