A vagabond dreamer, a rhymer and singer of songs Singing to no one and nowhere to really belong I met a beautiful lady, a pure Southern belle of the ball Like Scarlet O'Hara loved no one but wanted them all I'll never forget you and love you inspite of your faults The good and the bad, I want to remember it all And I did a new dance and you did your Tennessee WaltzBut the party's all over I came uninvited I'm leaving and taking the belle of the ball There will always be someone, I guess that's the way it should be I guess I should know that someone used to be me They'll gather around her, soon they'll all look the same At the feet of the lady are lovers without any names I'll never forget you and love you inspite of your faults The good and the bad, I want to remember it all And I did a new dance and you did your Tennessee WaltzBut the party's all over I came uninvited I'm leaving and taking the belle of the ball
