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 dancing,


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 playing

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz



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 dancing,


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 playing


The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
