Smokey River Boys - Tennessee Waltz lyrics

rate me

erse number one

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...

The chorus

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...

Verse number two

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...

Bridge

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...

Verse number three:

She goes dancing with the darkness... to the tennessee waltz

And I feel like I'm falling apart...

And it's stronger... than drink and it's deeper than sorrow...

This darkness she left in my heart...

The chorus

I remember the night... and the tennessee waltz...

Cause I know just how much I have lost...

Yes, I lost my little darling... the night they were playing...

The beautiful tennessee waltz...
