NEEDTOBREATHE
"Girl Named Tennessee"
(Bear Rinehart / Bo Rinehart)

They say this lasts forever
That's just what I'm afraid of
I've never dance like this again
She smiled like the Georgia summer
She laughs with the sound of thunder
I wanna dance like this again

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm not the marrying kind
I've said a thousand times
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

[Chorus:]
I was free and far from home
I was young and on my own
I was blind as I could be
Thinkin' love was not for me
Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Lights came down and the room spun slow
Started sayin' 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

[Chorus:]
I was free and far from home
I was young and on my own
I was blind as I could be
Thinkin' love was not for me
Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
