The Brand New Tennessee Waltz (1971 Version)

Oh, my, but you have a pretty face Why, you favor a girl that I knew An' I imagine that she's still in Tennessee, boy And by God, I should be there too 'Cause I've a sadness that's too sad to be true But I left Tennessee, in a hurry, dear, now In the same way that I'm leaving you Because love is mainly just memories, you see And everyone has got him a few So when I'm gone, I'll be glad to love you At the brand new Tennessee Waltz You were literally waltzing on air At the brand new Tennessee Waltz It's just no telling who will be there When I leave it'll be like I found you, love Descending Victorian stairs And I'm feeling like one of your photographs, girl I'm trapped while I was putting on air So I get even by sayin', "Well, who cares?" At the brand new Tennessee Waltz You were literally waltzing on air At the brand new Tennessee Waltz It's just no telling who will be there So have all of your passionate violins Play a tune for a Tennessee kid Who, this feeling, like leaving another town, now But with no place to go if he did 'Cause they'll catch you wherever you hid At the brand new Tennessee Waltz You were literally waltzing on air At the brand new, oTennessee Waltz It's just no telling who will be there
