Bonaparte's Retreat Lyrics - Ten Great Songs - Glen Campbell

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

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)
