Matchbox Bonaparte's Retreat
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
So I held her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
I kissed her while the fiddles played Bonaparte's Retreat
All the world was Bright
As I held her on that night
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
