Bonaparte’s Retreat

Met the girl I loved way down way down in Dixie
'Neath the stars above, she was the sweetest girl I ever did see
When I held her in my arms and told her my special charms
I kissed her while the fiddles played The Bonaparte's Retreat

All the world was bright when I held you on that night
And I heard you say that you'll never go away
But now her heart is all askew and I have left my water new
I miss when the fiddles played The Bonaparte's Retreat
