| Bonaparte's Retreat | |
|
[Words and music by Pee Wee King and Redd Stewart] Met the man I love 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 All the world was bright When he held me on that night And I heard him say "Please don't ever go away" 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 ---- Musical Interlude ---- 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 All the world was bright When he held me on that night And I heard him say "Please don't you go away" He's gone and I admit I knew That I had met my Waterloo I knew that he would say ado With Bonaparte's Retreat Good-bye little boy Good-bye little joy Good-bye little boy So long little joy | |

| Title:You Don't Know Me Artist: Ray Charles - Contributor:Webmaster | |
You give your hand to me And then you say hello I can hardly speak My heart is beating so And anyone can tell You think you know me well But you don't know me Oh you don't know the one That thinks of you at night Who longs to kiss your lips And yearns to squeeze you tight No I'm just a friend That's all I've ever been You just don't know me I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say goodbye I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy You'll never, never know The one who loves you so You just don't know me I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say goodbye I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy Who'll never, never know The one who loves you so You just don't know me You'll never, ever know mmmm, cause you just don't know me | |
