Tennessee Two Step

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
