Bonaparte’s Retreat Lyrics by Time Jumpers

Jumpin’ Time

2007

[Verse 1]
There's a boy I love
In a town way down in Dixie
'Neath the stars up above
He was the sweetest thing you ever did see
[Chorus]
So I held him in his arms, I
Told him of his many charms, I
Kissed him while the fiddles played
The Bonaparte's retreat
[Verse 2]
All the world was bright
As I held him on that night
And I heard him say
"Please don't you go away"
[Chorus]
So I held him in his arms, I
Told him of his many charms, I
Kissed him while the fiddles played
The Bonaparte's retreat, ow
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 1]
There's a boy I love
In a town way down in Dixie
'Neath thе stars up above
He was the sweetеst thing you ever did see
[Chorus]
So I held him in his arms, I
Told him of his many charms, I
Kissed him while the fiddles played
The Bonaparte's retreat
[Verse 2]
All the world was bright
As I held him on that night
And I heard him say
"Please don't you go away"
[Chorus]
So I held him in his arms, I
Told him of his many charms, I
Kissed him while the fiddles played
The Bonaparte's retreat
[Outro]
Thank you
Yeah
That's Dawn
Well, it's time to call on Ranger Doug again
Bring Doug up to the front of the stage
With a Bob Wills classic called "My Confession"
