I was dancing with my darlin'
To the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced him to my Darlin'
And while they were dancing
My friend stole my lover from me
Chorus
I remember the night
And the Tennessee Waltz
Now I know just how much I have lost
Oh, I lost my little darlin'
On the night they were playing
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz
(repeat)
