| 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 |
