本曲大意
這首歌敘述歌者被自己的老朋友橫刀奪愛。原因是歌者在舞會上把自己的愛人介紹給一位老朋友，當他們在跳這首田納西華爾滋時，她的愛人就愛上了她的老朋友。唉，這麽一個見異思遷的男人不要也罷。您說是嗎？
英文歌詞
I was dancing with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz when an old friend I happened to see.
Introduced her to my loved one and while they were dancing, my friend stole my sweetheart from me.
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz. Now I know just how much I have lost.
Yes, I lost my little darling the night they were playing the beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
歌詞翻譯
我和愛人隨著田納西華爾滋起舞，就在這時碰巧看見一位老朋友。
我把她介紹給我的愛人。當他們倆在跳舞時，我朋友偷走了我的愛人。
我記得那一夜和那首田納西華爾滋。現在我知道我的損失有多大。
是的，我失去我的愛人，就在那一夜當他們播放那首動聽的田納西華爾滋時。
字詞句型分析
1.I was dancing with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz when an old friend I happened to see.
a.本句正常的寫法應為:
I was dancing with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz when I happened to see an old friend of mine.
我正和我的愛人隨著田納西華爾滋起舞時，碰巧遇見了一位老友。
本句使用了下列句型:
主詞 + was + Ving + when引導的過去式子句 were 正在……就……
例:I was enjoying my ice cream when Peter came in.
（我正在享受冰淇淋時，彼得就進來了。）
b.dance to the music/the song/the beat 隨著音樂/歌曲/拍子起舞
例:I love this song very much, Peter. Shall we dance to it?
（我愛死這首歌了，彼得。我們隨著它跳舞好嗎？）
2.I lost my little darling the night they were playing the beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
句型分析:
a. 為主要子句。
b. 為副詞子句。
上列b句原為on the night when...(在……的那晚)。但介係詞on及關係副詞when習慣上予以省略, 故定冠詞the加上時間名詞可視為副詞連接詞。
例:The day he visited Dr. Lee, it was pouring.
（他拜訪李博士那天正下著大雨。）
The day係由On the day when (在……的那一天) 化簡而成。
例:The moment I took Marys picture, she fell to the ground unconscious.
（在我為瑪麗拍照的那一瞬間，她昏倒了。）
＊The moment係由At the moment when (在……的那一刻) 化簡而成。
