Girl Named Tennessee Lyrics
They say this lasts forever
That's just what I'm afraid of,
I'll never dance like this again.
She smiles like the Georgia summer
She laughs like the sound of thunder
I wanna dance like this again.
I'm not the marrying kind
I've said it a thousand times
But I've never danced like this before.
She's got the prettiest shoes
And I love the way she moves
I wanna 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
'Til 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."
She danced away with my heart and soul
Who she was, I will never know.
Danced away with my hopes and dreams,
My sweet girl from Tennessee.
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
'Til the night I met that girl named Tennessee.
That's just what I'm afraid of,
I'll never dance like this again.
She smiles like the Georgia summer
She laughs like the sound of thunder
I wanna dance like this again.
I've said it a thousand times
But I've never danced like this before.
She's got the prettiest shoes
And I love the way she moves
I wanna dance like this again.
I was young and on my own
I was blind as I could be
Thinking love was not for me
'Til the night I met that girl named Tennessee.
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."
Who she was, I will never know.
Danced away with my hopes and dreams,
My sweet girl from Tennessee.
I was young and on my own
I was blind as I could be
Thinking love was not for me
'Til the night I met that girl named Tennessee.

I think this song's about a guy discovering love for the first time. He's been alone, and content, but then this girl comes into his life that blows him away, and he's not noticed girls before, but this girl he took notice of.
This song is about having fun. That is all.
