Tennessee Waltz

Song: Tennessee Waltz
Artist: Connie Francis

I was dancin' with my darlin' to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced her to my loved one
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 playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz.



I was dancin' with my darlin' to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced her to my loved one
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 playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz

而 这夜他们却跳着
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
这美妙的田纳西舞

The Tennessee Waltz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The Tennessee Waltz" is a song, belonging to both the country music and popular genres, written by Redd Stewart and Pee Wee King in 1947, popularized by Patti Page and by Les Paul and Mary Ford in 1950. Country legend Roy Acuff recorded the song before either of these artists, however. In more recent years, a number of country artists have recorded the song, among them Emmylou Harris in 1981.

The Page recording was issued by Mercury Records as catalog number 5534, and first reached the Billboard pop music chart on November 10, 1950, lasting 30 weeks and peaking at #1. [1] It also reached #2 on the Billboard country music chart. The song became Patti Page's biggest hit and has received many awards.

The Les Paul/Mary Ford recording was issued by Capitol Records as catalog number 1316, and also reached the Billboard top 10.

Other recordings were made by Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians (on Decca Records, catalog number 27336) and by Jo Stafford (on Columbia Records, catalog number 39065). A British version was also recorded by Petula Clark.

On the Cash Box best-selling record charts, where all recordings were combined, the song first entered the chart on November 25, 1950, reached #1 on December 30, 1950, and remained #1 through the February 3, 1951 chart.
