The Battle Of New Orleans (1995 Digital Remaster) - Leon Russell (拉塞尔)[00:00:00]
Well in eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip[00:00:12]
Along with colonel jackson down the mighty mississip[00:00:14]
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans[00:00:17]
And we caught the bloody british at the town of new orleans[00:00:20]
We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'[00:00:23]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:25]
We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'[00:00:27]
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:00:30]
Well we eye-balled the river and we see the limeys come[00:00:38]
Musta been a hunnert of 'em beatin' on a drum[00:00:40]
And then they stepped so high and they made the bugles ring[00:00:42]
We hid behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing[00:00:46]
We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'[00:00:48]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:50]
We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'[00:00:53]
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:00:55]
Now old hickory says we can take 'em by surprise[00:01:14]
If we don't shoot our wads 'til we look 'em in the eyes[00:01:16]
So we held off our fire 'til we see them real well[00:01:19]
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave 'em hell[00:01:21]
We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'[00:01:24]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:26]
We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'[00:01:29]
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:01:31]
Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles[00:01:36]
And they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go[00:01:39]
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em[00:01:42]
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:01:45]
Well we fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down[00:01:52]
So we grabbed an alligator and we turned his tail around[00:01:54]
We stuffed his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind[00:01:57]
And when we lit the fuse that old gator blew his mind[00:02:00]
We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'[00:02:03]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:02:05]
We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'[00:02:08]
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:02:10]
Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles[00:02:15]
And they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go[00:02:18]
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em[00:02:21]
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico[00:02:24]
