Bonaparte's Retreat

I met the girl I love
In a town way down in Dixie
'Neath the stars above
She was the sweetest girl I ever did see
Then I held her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
And I kissed her while the fiddles played «Bonaparte's Retreat»
It was on that night
That I held her oh so tight
And I heard her say
«Please don’t ever go away»
So, I held her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
And I kissed her while the fiddles played «Bonaparte's Retreat»
So, I held her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
And I kissed her while the fiddles played «Bonaparte's Retreat»
