There's a dance they do down in Tennessee
|
It's just as simple as one two three
|
The old folks do it and the young folks too
|
Your little brother Billy and your old Aunt Sue
|
It's just a hillbilly rhythm with a touch of the blues
|
It ain't nothin' but a simple little country song
|
Keep movin' to the music and you can't go wrong
|
Do the Tennessee two step all night long
|
|
They do it down in Memphis on a Saturday night
|
And them folks in Chattanooga think it's outta sight
|
Down in Music City it's all the rage
|
They do it on the Grand Old Opry stage
|
Even heard them talkin' bout it on Crook and Chase
|
They say it even makes the Smoky Mountains smoke
|
Like wildfire spreadin' everywhere you go
|
And it's a Tennessee two step they do it on a hardwood floor
|
I said the Tennessee two step one time you're gonna holler for more
|
|
You put your right foot forward and your left foot back
|
Start a little wiggle in your sacroiliac
|
And that's a Tennessee two step they do it on a hardwood floor
|
|
From the Mississippi River to the Cumberland Gap
|
They don't want to hear no rock any they don't want to hear no rap
|
Tennessee people like to do it up proud
|
They turn the lights down low the music up loud
|
Grab yourself a partner and follow the crowd
|
Everybody's smilin' cause they're feeling fine
|
Get yoursell together in a big long line
|
To a Tennessee two step they do it on a hardwood floor
|
I said the Tennessee two step one time you're gonna holler for more
|
|
You put your right foot forward...
|
|
They say it even makes the Smoky Mountains smoke...
|
You put your right foot forward...
|
I said a Tennessee two step they do it on a hardwood floor
|
I said do it on a hardwood floor
