Met the girl I-I love in a town way down in Dixie
|
Beneath 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, I
|
Kissed her while the guitars played
|
The Bonaparte's Retreat
|
Guitar....
|
|
All the world wa-as bright as I held her on that night
|
And I heard her-er say
|
Please don't you go away
|
|
So I held her in my arms and told her of her many charms, I
|
Kissed her while the bagpipe played
|
The Bonaparte's Retreat
|
Bagpipe...
|
|
Well I met the girl I-I love in a town way down in Dixie
|
Beneath 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, I
|
Kissed her while the fiddles played
|
The Bonaparte's Retreat
|
Fiddle...
|
|
All the world wa-as bright as I held her on that night
|
And I heard her-er say
|
Please don't you go away
|
|
So I held her in my arms and told her of her many charms, I
|
Kissed her while everybody played
|
The Bonaparte's Retreat
|
Everybody...
|
|
Yes I held her in my arms and told her of her many charms, I
|
Kissed her while everybody's playin'
|
The Bonaparte's Retreat
|
|
Yes I held her in my arms, I told her of her many charms, and I
|
Kissed her while everybody's playin' [Fade]
