| Lyrics: | Met the girl that I love,
In a town way down in Texas.
'Neath the stars up above,
She
was the sweetest girl I ever did see.
So I held her in my arms and,
Told her of her many
charms,
An'; I kissed her while the fiddles played,
The Bonaparte's Retreat.
All
the world was bright as I held her on that night,
And I heard her say: "Don't you ever go
away."
So I held her in my arms and,
Told her of her many charms,
An' I kissed her
while the guitars played,
The Bonaparte's Retreat.
Instrumental break.
All the
world was bright as I held her on that night,
And I heard her say: "Don't you ever go
away."
So I held her in my arms and,
Told her of her many charms,
An' I kissed her
while the guitars played,
The Bonaparte's Retreat.
Instrumental close. |
