The Little Tennessee River is a 135-mile (217 km) tributary of the Tennessee River that flows through the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee, in the southeastern United States. It drains portions of three national forests— Chattahoochee, Nantahala, and Cherokee— and provides the southwestern boundary of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The river flows through five major impoundments: Fontana Dam, Cheoah Dam, Calderwood Dam, Chilhowee Dam, and Tellico Dam, and one smaller impoundment, Porters Bend Dam.
The Little Tennessee River rises in the Blue Ridge Mountains, in the Chattahoochee National Forest in northeast Georgia's Rabun County. After flowing north through the mountains past Dillard into southwestern North Carolina, it is joined by the Cullasaja River at Franklin. The river then turns northwest, flowing through the Nantahala National Forest along the north side of the Nantahala Mountains. It crosses into eastern Tennessee and joins the Tennessee River at Lenoir City, 25 miles (40 km) southwest of Knoxville.
Tennessee (i/tɛnᵻˈsiː/) (Cherokee: ᏔᎾᏏ, Tanasi) is a U.S. state located in the Southeastern United States. Tennessee is the 36th largest and the 17th most populous of the 50 United States. Tennessee is bordered by Kentucky and Virginia to the north, North Carolina to the east, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi to the south, and Arkansas and Missouri to the west. The Appalachian Mountains dominate the eastern part of the state, and the Mississippi River forms the state's western border. Tennessee's capital and second largest city is Nashville, which has a population of 601,222. Memphis is the state's largest city, with a population of 653,450.
The state of Tennessee is rooted in the Watauga Association, a 1772 frontier pact generally regarded as the first constitutional government west of the Appalachians. What is now Tennessee was initially part of North Carolina, and later part of the Southwest Territory. Tennessee was admitted to the Union as the 16th state on June 1, 1796. Tennessee was the last state to leave the Union and join the Confederacy at the outbreak of the U.S. Civil War in 1861. Occupied by Union forces from 1862, it was the first state to be readmitted to the Union at the end of the war.

Curly hair swaying with the wind from your spins
Your feet stomp the floor as the beat comes in
And you move so fast
Ballerina in a big bedroom
There's sweat on your forehead
Your hairs all damp
And you’re singing along
Though you can’t quite talk yet
The sound and the scene
Are like heaven to me
Like heaven to me
I love watching you grow tall
But it's happening too fast
Pictures only go so far
And I want this memory to last
So do your little dance...
Baby do your little dance…
It's like watching animation
Got a face full of stories
Never have to wonder bout your mood ‘'cause you tell me
You’re meaner than you are tall
Pretty girl
I hope you're always that strong
Dancing in the lamp light
A theme song plays
Silky pink pajama top
Both hands raised
I realize-
All I ever wanna be-
Is there for you when you ever need me
There are gonna be many sleepless nights
I can see it when I look in your eyes
I’ll just have to hope I raised you right
And I know someday too soon
All the boys will wanna dance with you
I’ll just have to hope you’ll dance with me, too.
