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. |
