Does anyone remember?

Nestled in the heart of the Tennessee Hills
Nestled 'neath the pines, 'neath the rocks and the rills
There stands my ole homestead of long, long ago
Brings back fond memories of the one I loved so.

I courted a maiden so rich and so rare
With heavenly eyes and with chestnut brown hair
I'll tell you the reason why I left here there
To roam this old world with its heartaches and cares

I saw her one night in the arms of a man
Hugging and kissing as true lovers can
I left for my home with a heart full of woe
Packed my belongings, determined to go

For many long years through this world I did roam
Thoughts of my sweetheart, my darling, my own
While dining one day in a little country town
A stranger walked in and by chance he sat down

While talking of loved ones I happened to find
His sister was that old sweetheart of mine
When I told my story, to me he then said
The one you left there has a long time been dead

She waited so long for the day that you'd return
Why you had left her she never did learn
Now I am the man whom you saw that fatal night
Wrapped in the arms of my sister so tight

She loved you so dearly, but you broke her heart
Poor stranger from her ever more you must part.

Does anyone know the name of this and if this is all of the words?

Thanks.
