Battle Of New Orleans - Craig Douglas[00:00:00]
In eighteen fourteen we took a little trip[00:00:05]
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississipp[00:00:07]
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans[00:00:10]
And we fought the bloody British in[00:00:12]
The town of New Orleans[00:00:14]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:00:15]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:17]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:00:20]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:00:22]
We looked down the river and we seed the British come[00:00:27]
And there must've been a hundred of em[00:00:30]
Beating on the drum[00:00:31]
They stepped so high and made their bugles sing[00:00:32]
We stood beside our cotton bails and didn't say a thing[00:00:35]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:00:37]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:40]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:00:42]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:00:45]
Old hickory said we take em by surprise[00:00:49]
If we didn't fire muskets till[00:00:52]
We looked em in the eyes[00:00:53]
We held our fire till we seed their faces well[00:00:54]
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and[00:00:57]
Really gave em hell[00:00:58]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:01:00]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:03]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:01:05]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:08]
They ran to the briars[00:01:10]
They ran through the brambles[00:01:12]
And they ran through the bushes[00:01:13]
Where a rabbit couldn't go[00:01:14]
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em[00:01:15]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:18]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:01:20]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:23]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:01:25]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:28]
They ran through the briars[00:01:30]
And they ran through the brambles[00:01:31]
And they ran through the bushes[00:01:33]
Where a rabbit couldn't go[00:01:34]
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em[00:01:35]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:38]
