I was dancing with my darling to the tennessee waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced him to my loved one
And while they were dancing
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the tennessee waltz
Only you know how much I have lost
Yes I lost my little darling
The night they were playing
The beautiful tennessee waltz
I was dancing with my darling to the tennessee waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced him to my loved one
And while they were dancing
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the tennessee waltz
Only you know how much I have lost
Yes I lost my little darling
The night they were playing
The beautiful tennessee waltz
