"I was waltzing with my baby ... and while - they were dancing - that dirty dog! stole my baby! away from me ... that beautiful! that wonderful! Tenn-e-ssee Waltz"

az- Keep Movin' On - Sam Cooke:

-Then he can turn right around and make you boogie to a heartbreak song, as he does in 'Tennessee Waltz', referring to his ex-friend as a 'dirty dog' (NOT in the original lyrics).
Movin' On features such Cooke classics as "Another Saturday Night" and "A Change Is Gonna Come," along with a hip-swiveling cover of "Tennessee Waltz"...In this era of neo-soul, it's often rewarding to go back to the source, and given the wealth of great music for which Cooke's sophisticated passion was a source, this collection is a must. --Amy Linden


-az rvw: There's music for Saturday night, and there's music for Sunday morning. The late Sam Cooke made music for both days and, in fact, every day of the week. nice. Keep
