Bonaparte's Retreat
Pee Wee King / Redd Stewart

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"
