I was dancin' 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 dancin' 
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 darlin' the night they were playin' 
That 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 darlin', and who could help fallin' 
In love with my darlin' so sweet 

Well it must be the fault of the Tennessee Waltz 
Wish I'd known just how much it would cost 
But I didn't see it comin', it's all over but the cryin' 
Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz 

She goes dancin' 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 

I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz 
'Cause I know just how much I have lost 
Yes I lost my little darlin' the night they were playin' 
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz
