Willie Nelson - Bonaparte's Retreat 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.
