Girl Named Tennessee

They say this last forever That's just what I'm afraid of I've never danced like this before She smiles like the Georgia summer She laughs like the sound of thunder I'll never dance like this again I was free and far from home I was young and on my own I was blind as I could be Thinking love was not for me Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee I'm not the marrying kind I've said it a thousand times I've never danced like this before She's got the prettiest shoes And I love the way she moves I'll never dance like this again I was free and far from home I was young and on my own I was blind as I could be Thinking love was not for me Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee Lights came down and the room spun slow Started saying she had to go Don't go baby, I didn't get your name She said, "Don't worry. I did not say." I was free and far from home I was young and on my own I was blind as I could be Thinking love was not for me Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee
