Brand New Tennessee Waltz — текст песни (Stanley Brothers)

Oh, my, but you have a pretty face,
You favor a girl that I knew,
I imagine that sheВґs still in Tennessee,
And, by God, I schould be there, too
IВґve a sadness too sad to be true.
But I left Tennessee in a hurry, Dear,
The same way that IВґm leaving you,
ВґCause love is mainly just memories
And everyoneВґs got him a few,
So when IВґm gone IВґll be glad to love you.

(CHORUS)
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz youВґre lit Вґrally waltzing on air;
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz there ainВґt no telling who will be there.

When I leave itВґll be like I found you, Love,
Descending Victorian stairs,
IВґm feeling like one of your photographs
Trapped while IВґm putting on airs,
And getting even by asking, "Who cares".
So, have all of your passionate violins
Play a tune for a Tennessee kid,
WhoВґs feeling like leaving another town
With no place to go if he did,
ВґCause theyВґll catch you wherever you`re hid.
