The Battle Of New Orleans (新奥尔良战役) - Johnny Horton[00:00:00]
In eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip[00:00:09]
Along with colonel jackson down the mighty mississipp'[00:00:12]
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans[00:00:14]
And we caught the bloody british in the town of new orleans [00:00:17]
We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'[00:00:20]
There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:22]
We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:00:25]
On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico [00:00:28]
We looked down the river and we seen the british come[00:00:33]
And there must have been a hundred of 'em beatin on the drum[00:00:35]
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring[00:00:38]
We stood behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing [00:00:41]
We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'[00:00:44]
There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:46]
We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:00:49]
On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico [00:00:51]
Ol' hickory said we could take 'em by surprise[00:00:57]
If we didn't fire our muskets 'til we looked 'em in the eyes[00:00:59]
We held our fire 'til we seen their faces well[00:01:02]
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave em well [00:01:04]
We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'[00:01:07]
There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:11]
We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:01:13]
On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico [00:01:16]
Yeah they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles[00:01:21]
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go [00:01:24]
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em[00:01:27]
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico [00:01:29]
We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down[00:01:37]
Then we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round[00:01:40]
We filled his head with cannonballs and powered his behind[00:01:42]
And when we touched the powder off the 'gator lost his mind [00:01:45]
We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'[00:01:48]
There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:50]
We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:01:53]
On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico [00:01:56]
They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles[00:02:01]
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go[00:02:04]
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em[00:02:06]
A down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico [00:02:09]
