I was waltzing with my darling To the Tennessee waltz When an old friend I happened to see I introduced her to my loved one And while they were waltzing 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 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 Oh the beautiful Tennessee waltz
