Kay Starr
In a town way down in Dixie
'Neath the stars above
He was the sweetest man you ever did see
When he held me in his arms
And told me of my many charms
He kissed me while the fiddles played
The Bonaparte's Retreat
When he held me on that night
And I heard him say
"Please don't ever go away"
And told me of my many charms
He kissed me while the fiddles played
The Bonaparte's Retreat
And told me of my many charms
He kissed me while the fiddles played
The Bonaparte's Retreat
When he held me on that night
And I heard him say
"Please don't you go away"
That I had met my Waterloo
I knew that he would say ado
With Bonaparte's Retreat
Good-bye little joy
Good-bye little boy
So long little joy
