The Battle Of New Orleans - Johnny Horton[00:00:00]

In eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip[00:00:09]

Along with colonel jackson[00:00:12]

Down the mighty mississipp'[00:00:13]

We took a little bacon and[00:00:14]

We took a little beans[00:00:16]

And we caught the bloody[00:00:17]

British in the town of new orleans[00:00:18]

We fired our guns and[00:00:20]

The british kept on comin'[00:00:21]

There wasn't neigh as many[00:00:22]

As there was a while ago[00:00:23]

We fired once more and[00:00:25]

They began to runnin'[00:00:26]

On down the mississippi[00:00:28]

To the gulf of mexico[00:00:29]

We looked down the river[00:00:33]

And we seen the british come[00:00:34]

And there must have been a hundred[00:00:35]

Of 'em beatin on the drum[00:00:37]

They stepped so high and[00:00:38]

They made their bugles ring[00:00:40]

We stood behind our cotton bales[00:00:41]

And didn't say a thing[00:00:42]

We fired our guns[00:00:44]

And the british kept on comin'[00:00:45]

There wasn't neigh as many as[00:00:46]

There was a while ago[00:00:48]

We fired once more[00:00:49]

And they began to runnin'[00:00:50]

On down the[00:00:52]

Mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:00:53]

Ol' hickory said[00:00:57]

We could take 'em by surprise[00:00:58]

If we didn't fire our muskets 'til[00:01:00]

We looked 'em in the eyes[00:01:01]

We held our fire 'til we seen their faces well[00:01:03]

Then we opened up our squirrel guns[00:01:05]

And really gave em well[00:01:06]

We fired our guns[00:01:08]

And the british kept on comin'[00:01:10]

There wasn't neigh[00:01:11]

As many as there was a while ago[00:01:12]

We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:01:14]

On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:01:17]

Yeah they ran through the briars[00:01:22]

And they ran through the brambles[00:01:23]

And they ran through the bushes[00:01:24]

Where a rabbit couldn't go[00:01:26]

They ran so fast that[00:01:28]

The hounds couldn't catch 'em[00:01:29]

Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:01:30]

We fired our cannon 'til[00:01:38]

The barrel melted down[00:01:39]

Then we grabbed an alligator[00:01:40]

And we fought another round[00:01:42]

We filled his head with cannonballs[00:01:43]

And powered his behind[00:01:45]

And when we touched the powder off[00:01:46]

The 'gator lost his mind[00:01:47]

We fired our guns and the[00:01:49]

British kept on comin'[00:01:50]

There wasn't neigh as many as[00:01:51]

There was a while ago[00:01:53]

We fired once more[00:01:54]

And they began to runnin'[00:01:55]

On down the mississippi[00:01:57]

To the gulf of mexico[00:01:58]

They ran through the briars[00:02:02]

And they ran through the brambles[00:02:03]

And they ran through the bushes[00:02:05]

Where a rabbit couldn't go[00:02:06]

They ran so fast that[00:02:08]

The hounds couldn't catch 'em[00:02:09]

A down the mississippi[00:02:10]

To the gulf of mexico[00:02:11]
