The Battle Of New Orleans - Johnny Horton[00:00:01]

In 1814 we took a little trip[00:00:09]

Along with colonel Jackson down the mighty mississip[00:00:12]

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

And we caught the bloody British in a town in New Orleans[00:00:17]

We fired our guns and the British kept a-coming[00:00:20]

There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:22]

We fired once more and they begin to runnin'[00:00:25]

On down the Mississippi to the gulf of Mexico[00:00:28]

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

And we see'd the British come[00:00:34]

And there must have been a hundred of 'em[00:00:36]

Beatin' on the drums[00:00:37]

They stepped so high[00:00:38]

And they made their bugles ring[00:00:39]

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

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

We fired our guns and the British kept a-coming[00:00:44]

There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:46]

We fired once more and they begin to runnin'[00:00:49]

On down the Mississippi to the gulf of Mexico[00:00:52]

Old hickory said we could take 'em by surprise[00:00:57]

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

'Till we looked 'em in the eye[00:01:01]

We held our fire[00:01:03]

'Till we see'd their faces well[00:01:04]

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

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

Fired our guns and the British kept a-coming[00:01:09]

There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:11]

We fired once more and they begin 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[00:01:25]

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

They ran so fast[00:01:28]

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

On down the Mississippi to the gulf of Mexico[00:01:30]

We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down[00:01:38]

So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round[00:01:41]

We filled his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind[00:01:43]

And when we touched the powder off the gator lost his mind[00:01:46]

We fired our guns and the British kept a-coming[00:01:49]

There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:51]

We fired once more and they begin to runnin'[00:01:54]

On down the Mississippi to the gulf of Mexico[00:01:57]

Yeah 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 the rabbit couldn't go[00:02:06]

They ran so fast[00:02:08]

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

On down the Mississippi to the gulf of Mexico[00:02:10]

One-two hup-two-three-four[00:02:13]

Hut-two-three-four[00:02:15]

Sound off three-four[00:02:18]

Hut-two-three-four[00:02:21]

Sound off three-four[00:02:23]
