I was dancing… with my darling …to the Tennessee Waltz…
When an old friend …I happened to see…
I introduced him to my darling …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 darling, the night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
Now I wonder how a dance like… the Tennessee Waltz…
Could have broken my heart so complete…
Well I couldn't blame my darling …and who could help falling…
In love with my darling so sweet…
Well it must have been the fault of the Tennessee Waltz…
Wish I'd known just how much it would cost…
But I didn't see it coming …it's all over but the crying…
Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz…
